Lyrics Yawning Or Snarling - The Tragically Hip

Yawning Or Snarling

T-shirts off a busload of kids gives you the finger afternoon when the
sidewalk’s hot and the shadow’s too chilly to linger walk
Past damaged goods and ugly trends past a strawman making a purchase downtown
where the river bends they’re just waiting
For you to resurface take a look at this photograph clearly his teeth were
bared he coulda been yawning or snarling the story
Was never clear
One night in el paso the cops go into the crowd under a throbbing bladder of
light and the music is just so loud and the tourists
Turn their t.v.'s off and a bat sees a bug with the sound of a linger night
time when the shadows cough and you’re chilled to the
Tips of your fingers walk past damaged goods and ugly trends past ol' strawman
making a purchase downtown where the river
Bends they’re just waiting for you to resurface take a look at this photograph
clearly his teeth were bared he coulda been
Yawning or snarling he coulda been anywhere
