Now for Plan AThe Modern Spirit lyrics by The Tragically Hip
In the dark before the train
Just beyond the barn glow
Where no dissident remains
Driving it like we stole it
Snow falling, a silver poet
To concentrate the gallows
And subtracting us like the wolf does
Driving it like we stole it
But we're getting nearer, nearer
Getting near that modern spirit, yeah
I can hear it, hear it, hear it
I can hear that modern spirit
On the open road for boys
A white and an open throat
Night slips back with no noise
Inside the hitch-hiker's coat
But we're getting nearer, nearer
Getting near that modern spirit, yeah
I can hear it, hear it, hear it
I can hear the modern spirit, yeah
Can't you just hear it, hear it, hear it?
Winter counting everything, we're near it
We're getting nearer nearer, nearer
Friendship changing everything, we're near it
I can hear it
Is this the modern spirit?
Is this the modern spirit, yeah
Is this the modern spirit
This is the modern spirit, yeah
This is the modern spirit
This is the modern spirit, yeah
This is the modern spirit
This is the modern spirit, yeah
Yeah? Yeah
