[00:00.000]Tournament of Hearts (Live) - The Weakerthans
[00:03.110]Now the lounge is full of farmers
[00:06.480]For the 7:30 draw
[00:10.070]Teammates all left before
[00:12.110]They had to buy a round
[00:16.210]When they pull the 50/50
[00:19.370]And I've lost again I'll go
[00:22.930]Maybe have one more brown
[00:24.980]One for the snowy road
[00:28.840]All the championship banners
[00:32.099]Going yellow on the wall
[00:35.179]Add my name when it gets closer to last call
[00:41.368]So Elvira brings my bottle
[00:44.688]Hold it up and let it bend
[00:48.308]Figures of two rinks battling an extra end
[00:54.238]And I'm peeling off the label
[00:57.518]As they peel a corner guard
[01:00.958]Dance down the sheet to the tune
[01:03.078]Of"Hurry Hurry Hard"
[01:06.998]And my popcorn squeaks a question
[01:10.058]Wonders why I'm not at home
[01:13.118]Where you wait beside a silent telephone
[01:19.538]Doodle circles within circles all alone
[01:25.798]Have to stop myself from climbing
[01:29.038]On the table full of empties to yell why
[01:35.677]Why can't I ever stop where I want to stay
[01:41.967]Why can't I ever stop where I want to stay
[01:46.627]I slide right through the days
[01:49.537]I'm always throwing hack weight
[01:51.937]Right off no never never ever ever
[01:55.067]Right off no never never ever never
[01:58.187]Right off no never never never ever
[02:01.297]Right off no never ever never ever
[02:04.427]Right off no never never ever ever
[02:07.547]Right off no never never ever never
[02:10.457]Right off no never ever never ever
[02:13.567]Right off
[02:16.057]Now the senior Bonspiel winners circa 1963
[02:22.267]Are all staring glaring disapprovingly
[02:28.497]From their frame in that old photograph at me
[02:34.917]And I know you're out there waiting
[02:38.157]For an answer I can't give you
[02:41.077]So tell me why
[02:45.136]Why can't I draw right up to what I want to say
[02:51.486]Why can't I ever stop when I want to stay
[02:56.206]We roll right through our years
[02:59.306]We drip right through our months
[03:02.296]We slide right through our days
[03:05.586]I'm always throwing hack weight
[03:08.056]Right off no never never ever ever
[03:11.075]Right off no never never ever never
[03:14.345]Right off no never ever never ever
[03:17.685]Right off
