At The Hundredth Meridian
Par The Tragically Hip
Album : TTH Salem NC 11/16/98 (D2)

Me debunk an American myth?

And take my life in my hands?

Where the great plains begin at the hundredth meridian

At the hundredth meridian where the great plains begin

Driving down a corduroy road

Weeds standing shoulder high

Ferris wheel is rusting off in the distance

At the hundredth meridian
At the hundredth meridian
At the hundredth meridian
Where the great plains begin

Left alone to get gigantic

Hard, huge and haunted

A generation so much dumber than it's parents

Came crashing through the window

A raven strains along the line of the road

Carrying a muddy, old skull

The wires whistle their approval

Off down the distance

At the hundredth meridian
At the hundredth meridian
At the hundredth meridian
Where the great plains begin
At the hundredth meridian
At the hundredth meridian
At the hundredth meridian
Where the great plains begin

I remember, I remember buffalo

And I remember Hengelo

It would seem to me

I remember every single fucking thing I know

If I die of Vanity, promise me, promise me

That if they bury me some place I don't want to be

That you'll dig me up and transport me

Unceremoniously away from the swollen city breeze

Garbage bag trees, whispers of disease

And acts of enormity

And lower me slowly, sadly, and properly

Get Ry Cooder to sing my eulogy

At the hundredth meridian
At the hundredth meridian
At the hundredth meridian
Where the great plains begin
At the hundredth meridian
At the hundredth meridian
At the hundredth meridian
Where the great plains begin
