Scared Lyrics by The Tragically Hip

Scared Lyrics

    I could make you scared
    if you want me to
    I'm not prepared, but if I have to
    He said, I can make you scared,
    it's kinda what I do
    if you're prepared,
    here's what I propose to do
    You're in Russia
    and more than a million works of art
    are whisked out to the woods
    So when Nazis
    find the whole place dark
    They'd think god's
    left the museum for good

    I make you scared, if that's what I do
    if you're prepared, if I have to
    if I make you scared and you pay me to
    if that's the deal
    now here's what I can do for you

    Now there's a focus group
    that can prove
    this is all nothing
    but cold calculation

    Tests have shown
    that suspicious or hostile
    Their lives need not be shortened
    truth be told
    they can live a long, long while
    Tickled to death by their importance

    if you make me scared,
    if that's what you do
    if I'm unclear can I get out of this thing
    with me and you
    if you feel scared, a bit confused,
    I gotta say
    this sounds a little beyond
    anything I'm used to

    Now there's a precious few
    that can prove that at the root
    This is all nothing but a cold calculation

    Clearly entranced,
    you're leaning back now
    Defanged destroyer limps into the bay
    Down at the beach
    it's attracting quite a crowd
    As kids wade through blood
    out to it to play

    OK you made me scared,
    you did what you set out to do
    I'm not prepared, really had me
    going there for a minute or two
    He said, you made me scared too,
    I wasn't sure I was getting through
    I gotta go, it's been a pleasure
    doing business with you.
