Tragically Hip

Tragically Hip - The Kids Don't Get It lyrics

rate me

You said, ‘If I ask you a question,

are you gonna lie to me?’

I said, ‘honey, is that your question?

cuz honey, that one’s easy’

cuz half the truth is, just how much there is

The kids don’t get it

No. The kids don’t get it

I’m gonna be an expert stranger,

better than the giant squid

I’m gonna leave the stranger experts

scratching their heads, saying, ‘how’d he do it?!’

When half the truth is, just how hard it is

But the kids don’t get it

No. The kids won’t get it

I’ll be the antlers and I’ll be the elk

I’ll be the right whale and I’ll be parallel

The kids don’t get it

That’s right, kids don’t get it

I’ll feel more than human when the work’s hitting home

I’ll be aped by my ancestors. I’ll state the plan as my own

I’ll be gripping the city, I’ll be hitting the town

You’ll say. ‘I’d be hurt if you didn’t, when I come around’

That’s right, kids don’t get it

I’ll be as careless as you are certain.

I’ll get outta my own way

I’ll stop to cry into the curtains

and like the greats, before me, go on stage

And if half-true its, good enough for this

cuz the kids don’t get it

No. The kids don’t get it

If I ask you a question,

ya gonna lie to me?

Ah honey is that your question?

cuz that one’s easy

Kids don’t get it

Just how hard it is

Kids don’t get it

Just how much there is
