They don't know how old I am
Found armour in my belly
From the 16th century
Conquistador, I think
They don't know how old I am
They found armour in my belly
Passion out of machine-revving tension
Lashing out at machine-revving tension
Brushing by the machine revving tension
Morning broke out the backside of a truck-stop
End of a line a real, rainbow-likening luck stop,
Where you could say I became chronologically "fucked up"
Put ten bucks in just to get the tank topped off
Then I found a place it's dark and it's rotted
It's a cool, sweet kinda place where the copters won't spot it
And I destroyed the map, I even thought I forgot it, however,
Everyday I'm dumping the body
It'd be better for us if you don't understand
Even better for me if you don't understand (Yuh)
(Instra)
And I found a place it's dark and it's rotted
It's a cool, sweet kinda place where the copters won't spot it
And I destroyed the map that I carefully dotted, however,
Every-day I'm dumping the body
It'd be better for us if you don't understand
It'd be better for us if you don't understand
Better for me if you don't understand
Let me out let me out let me out let me out let me out let me out let me out

Review about Locked in the Trunk of a Car Uh, Okay | Reviewer: Anon | 11/16/09
Buddy -- you know Tragically Hip was an active band like, 8 years before the Dave Matthews Band even existed, right? If anything, Dave Matthews Band is just an American version of the Tragically Hip. Your right about the fact that this is an awesome song though. One of their best.
This song is great bit a bit cryptic but the usual excellent Hip melodic story telling.
It is from one perspective about a mobster and his thoughts and insights of his lifestyle.
"It'd be better for us if you don't understand
It'd be better for us if you don't understand"
The famous "fuggetaboutit"
On the other hand he is the victim that is being locked in the trunk of a car.
" Let me out let me out let me out let me out "
So it could be viewed as from either perspective..even an observer.
This is perfect example of Gord's picture painting songstyle.If I had to recommend one song to someone who never heard of the Hip or just a lesser known one..This is it. four stars!!
This song is the best song these guys have ever done, because it shows that they're more than just a canadian version of Dave Matthews Band. They show their hard rock side, and the lyrics are very dark, but Gordon Downie, the lead singer, makes it sound amazing. The Hip Rule!!!!!
