Looking For A Place To Happen Lyrics - Fully Completely - Tragically Hip

I've got a job, I explore 

I follow every little whiff 

And I want my life to smell like this 

To find a place, an ancient race 

The kind you'd like to gamble with 

Where they'd stamp on burning bags of shit 

Looking for a place to happen 

Making stops along the way, hey 

Wayward ho, away we go 

It's a shame to leave this masterpiece 

With its gallery gods and its garbage bag trees 

So I'll paint a scene from memory 

So I'd know who murdered me 

It's a vain pursuit but it helps me to sleep

Looking for a place to happen 

Making stops along the way, hey 

Looking for a place to happen 

Making stops along the way, hey 

Looking for a place to happen 

Making stops along the way, hey 

Jacques Cartier, right this way 

I'll put your coat up on the bed 

Hey, man, you've got the real bum's eye for clothes 

And come on in, sit right down 

No, you're not the first to show 

We've all been here since, God, who knows? 

Looking for a place to happen 

Making stops along the way, hey 

Looking for a place to happen 

Making stops along the way, hey

I'll put your coat up on the bed 

You've got the real bum's eye for clothes 

And come on in, sit right down
