Lyrics The Tragically Hip

The Tragically Hip

The Wherewithal

Richard talks too slow

He'd get interrupted long before

I always loved that guy

And he's not on TV any more

To get out before

He had the wherewithal

To get out before

He had the wherewithal

You've got to coax him slow

That's the only way that he'll confess

Tell him that the truth

Will help him live with less

To get out before

He had the wherewithal

To get out before

He had the wherewithal

And that's a breathy body of work

Set your sights inward for a leaner look

And that's a breathy body of work

Set your sights inward for a leaner look

Richard died real slow

He won't get interrupted any more

I always loved that guy

And he's not on TV any more

To get out before

He had the wherewithal

To get out before

He had the wherewithal
