As Makeshift As We Are Lyrics - Tragically Hip

You do the combat math 

I'm the war artist 

You can't take your shots back 

I have to watch them miss 

The basketball rim 

Shook like a tambourine 

Not an unlikely event 

In a game that means nothing 

In a game that means nothing 

Makeshift we are 

Lead never leaves your system no matter who you are 

Makeshift we are 

As makeshift as we are

You're a complex dune 

I'm a cloud of octopus ink 

You're and elusive tune 

I'm more ice sculpture than I think 

You're the neutral tribe 

And I got the wrong openness 

Here's where I slowly close my eyes 

And say, "I'm too drunk for this" 

Yeah, I'm too drunk for this 

Makeshift we are 

"Weaklings Make Trouble" you played on your guitar 

Makeshift we are 

As makeshift as we are 

We are, we are, we are 

Photos 

The loneliest buoys 

On dolphin property 

You're as quiet as a fish 

I only sing for the whole sea 

From memory metal tension springs 

We were gunsmoke and the truth 

Let's shake some snow off of his shoulders 

Let's shake some snow off of the roof 

Let's shake some snow off of the roof 

Makeshift we are 

Occurring to each other under the setups of the stars 

Makeshift we are 

We imagine us here and here we are 

Makeshift we are 

Through half-squinted eyes becoming a mirage 

Makeshift we are 

We are, we are
