Trickle Down Songtext
von The Tragically Hip

Old lion′s dying, got left behind cut your teeth
Lose your meat and man it's just a matter of time
Key′s to the cuffs, you might be king
That's it, that's all, that′s everything

Skeletons come here to dance
Where barrooms beat their brothers into a bloody trance
What′s the deal? What did I do?
Who cops all the cops is all I asked of you

Lining up, waiting on the trickle down
Something's up, taking time to get around
Belly up, all the drinks are on the crown
It′s just a matter of trickle down

Twenty miles before the crash
That's the style for a while and man, I think it′s gonna last
Hit the breaks is all you can say
Conductor says, "We'll save them for another rainy day"


Lining up, waiting on the trickle down
Something′s up, taking time to get around
Belly up, all the drinks are on the crown
It's just a matter of a trickle down

Old lion's dying, got left behind cut your teeth
Lose your meat and man it′s just a matter of time
Key′s to the cuffs, you might be king
That's it, that′s all, that's everything

Lining up, waiting on the trickle down
Something′s up, taking time to get around
Belly up, all the drinks are on the crown
It's just a matter of a trickle down

Lining up, waiting on the trickle down
Something′s up, taking time to get around
Belly up, all the drinks are on the crown
It's just a matter of a trickle down

It's just a matter of a trickle down
It′s just a matter of a trickle down
