Artist: Menomena
Song: The Pelican

Take it when I'm not looking!
Take it from my hook while it's still kicking!
Don't you feel it when I start reeling?
I guess some things never change,
and I still hold the reins on what you're feeling...

Take it when I'm enjoying!
Take it from my mouth while I'm still chewing!
Don't you feel it when I start pulling back?
I guess some birds never learn;
One day these tides will turn and leave you nothing!

We're forced to lock our horns up
in some epic clash that we can't finish.
On our own we'll have to settle, 
swallow pride and hold our heads up high!

Stake it when you feel threatened!
Stake your claim on land already taken!
Don't you feel it when I start throwing stones?
I guess some birds never learn;
One day these tides will turn and leave you nothing!

Take it!
