The Tragically Hip Lyrics
"Lake Fever"

We can take a bit of a breather
We can skip to the practical part
We can skip to the time of neither
When we're together, even when we're apart
Tell you a story about the Lake Fever
or we can skip to the coital fury
You didn't say yes or no neither
You whispered hurry
hurry
hurry
hurry

We can take it a little bit further
We can skip to the after-effects part
Not trying to make you a believer
Don't want a little piece of your heart
Just telling you a story about the Lake Fever
or we can skip to a neutral fury
You didn't say yes or no neither
You whispered hurry

Wanna be a nobody without peer (hurry)
Wanna be a thought that's never done (hurry)
Wanna shake your faith in human nature (hurry)
Wanna break the hearts of everyone (hurry)
Wanna be your wheezing screen door
Wanna be your stars Algonquin
Wanna be your roaring floorboard
Wanna break the hearts of everyone
and cause discontent
Until they, ceasing their investigation,
bring back the days' events, good citizens
and time well-spent
Till we're talking in whispers again
[You whispered hurry]
