Provincial Blues

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I came to the city When the city was cheap Now that she's had some work done I pay through the teeth You came from Alberta You said 'Toronto's not so bad' I took it as a compliment But I couldn't think of a compliment back [Chorus] It's just the wheeze rolling by It's just the wheeze rolling by How did we all get hypnotized By the time sometimes How did we all get left behind By the time sometimes [Verse 2] You went and told your mother She went and told your dad That's how your older brother Came to get my ass They send me with New York I said uhh that provincial shit's a drag How come there's always a better party That I think I should be at [Chorus] It's just the wheeze rolling by It's just the wheeze rolling by How did we all get hypnotized By the time sometimes How did we all get left behind By the time sometimes [Outro] It's just the wheeze rolling by By and by It's just the wheeze rolling by
