The Luxury Lyrics

Tragically Hip The Luxury

Zoo lion sobers up and starts to scream and shout
A little dose of home fire got him all smoothed down
Melancholy wine soaked tenderness
She hated it here and she couldn't care less

Prison yard stares and Fleur de Lis tattoos
Cannibals are saving all their bones for soup
Eating with my fingers and sucking hulls of ships
My parasite don't deserve no better than this

The golden rim motor inn soft water and a color TV
So consumed with the shape I'm in can't enjoy the luxury
The luxury

She said, "Why are you partial to that playboy con?
When you can see me naked anytime you want?"
If I had loads of monody to make me tame and sour
I could pay you to remind of my baby by the hour

Zoo lion sobers up and starts to scream and shout
A little dose of home fire got him all smoothed down
This is where it all starts to get good
Then I'll be here waiting for you, like I said I would

The golden rim motor inn soft water and a color TV
So consumed with the shape I'm in can't enjoy the luxury
The luxury
