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 à 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 Candy's not feeling well
Close, but that's not why
I'm so hard done by
This song is so angry and pissed off, and yet so delicate and beautiful. It represents how I feel on those crappy rainy days (which apparently occur in the middle of Jan. in Ottawa). I enjoy the fact that he's singing about a stripper too, it makes the song have a sexy undertone. This is officially my favourite band, ever since I was 12 years old. Listen to it. Love it.
