Emperor Penguin Lyrics by The Tragically Hip

Emperor Penguin Lyrics

    I like the tone of your trumpet
    C'mon let's spill some paint
    Let's raise a glass of milk to the end of another day
    And to the kiss that's still intangible
    The kids are alright just unmanageable
    They won't do a damn thing you say

    Your voice is all detached on a radio-wave breeze
    We have another caller with a bachelor degree
    Talkin alien invasion as the only chance for unity
    Well sorry to interrupt you caller
    But that's a physical impossibility

    You'd be tossed up or wash up
    The narrator relates
    In a spartan antarctican walk for many days
    Meet with Emperor Penguin devotion to the egg
    And their women are swimming from half an ocean away

    Don't sound so detached this is you and me
    Just give me your opinion before you turn to leave
    But your crust is just incredible
    The radio was edible
    When you said don't wipe your asses with your sleeves
    You're a physical impossibility
