So Hard Done By — текст песни (Tragically Hip, The)

interesting and sophisticated
refusing to be celebrated
it`s a monumental big screen kiss
it`s so deep it`s meaningless
one day you`ll just up and quit
and that`ll be it
just then the stripper stopped in a coughing fit
she said sorry I can`t go on with this

yeah that`s awful close
but that`s not why
I`m so hard done by

it was true cinema a clef
you should see it before there`s nothing left
in an epic too small to be tragic
you`ll have to wait a minute
cause it`s an instamatic

yeah that`s awful close
but that`s not why
I`m so hard done by

Just then the room became more dimly lit
as the emcee carried on with it
and now that I got you all strangely compelled
I`m afraid that Candy`s not feeling well

close, but that`s not why
I`m so hard done by
