The drummers and jugglers in Montreal
|
Don't even exist at all
|
So I'm tearing up these tarot cards and Venetians clowns
|
Antique shops and alcoholic homosexuals
|
|
You may ask why I want to torch my home town
|
Partly it's bitterness and hopping 'round and 'round again
|
On Ontario Street looking up
|
Maybe I'll catch him on his way to the show
|
|
You travel the world and find all the answers
|
Everything operates on the unattainables
|
And then you hear your mother laugh attached to the phone
|
Could have walked around the block 'cause all roads lead to home
|
|
Say, will you ever ever ever know,
|
Ever ever ever fly away?
|
Will you ever ever ever go,
|
Ever ever ever find a way?
|
