Sloan - Who Taught You To Live Like That? Lyrics






She came through inspections
Towards me in sections
The life disappeared from the room
She asked me politely
May I put this lightly
The death that you thought was exhumed
It's buried beneath us
Since I wrote the thesis
I think I know better than you

Who taught you to live like that?
Who taught you to live like that?
Who taught you to live like that?
Who taught you to live like that?
It's buried beneath us
Since I wrote the thesis
Who taught you to live like that?

You circulate freely
Surrender completely
Wind up alone in the road
The light's gettin' brighter
The prize to the fighter
And now we got somethin' to hold
And if it gets heavy
You can't keep it steady
Remember the things you been told

Who taught you to live like that?
Who taught you to live like that?
Who taught you to live like that?
Who taught you to live like that?
It's buried beneath us
Since I wrote the thesis
Who taught you to live like that?

Who taught you to live like that?

Sounds a bit offside
Judgin' who just died
Who'll be the first to speak
The piano was upright
Attendance was uptight
Countin' the days of the week
But 'round about midnight
Your comments were highlight
The party spilled into the street

Who taught you to live like that?
Who taught you to live like that?
Who taught you to live like that?
Who taught you to live like that?
But 'round about midnight
Your comments were highlight
Who taught you to live like that?

    Sloan is one of the most underrated bands of our generation ✌

  2. W.... S....

    This song plays in coffee bean all the time... fucking annoying

  3. B.... W....

    ... this band is brilliant and truly timeless ... never stop !!!

  4. S.... C....

    Sloan is a Toronto-based rock/power pop quartet from Halifax, Nova Scotia. Throughout their 25 plus-year career, Sloan has released 11 LPs, two EPs, a live album, a Greatest hits album and more than thirty singles. The band has received nine Juno Award nominations.

  5. A.... P....

    C'est très bon. Bravo. Un bon rock.

  6. b.... b....

    I feel rediculously old right now. I was 17 when this came out

  7. F.... R....

    This is my favourite Jay Ferguson song

  8. A.... P....

    good rockin song!

  9. P.... K....

    Their best song

  10. D.... S....

    Can you believe I just heard this song for the first time today....amazing great song! Thanks Indie 88.1

  11. C.... B....

    listen.., if u don't like the song..., go somewhere else.

  12. r.... ....

    Worked their show last night in Kitchener...great performance. Super band. Great guys.

  13. K.... ....

    What is your "drug" of choice....Confusion?????

  14. S.... ....

    So what you're saying is that you hate the beatles too?

  15. s.... ....

    Castle <33

  16. T.... ....

    Sloan is a band every fan needs to see live. Their records are really good, but live they're freaking awesome! I just saw them last night in Calgary.

  17. B.... ....

    you clearly havnt heard the beatles, cos you could say that about everyband dumbass

  18. d.... ....

    @TroyArn I agree, although this is a Jay Ferguson song. I didn't realize that all 4 of them wrote their own songs and performed them. So hit or miss is actually more geared towards the solo members themselves...witch's wand is a good Jay Ferguson song though.

  19. c.... ....

    =) Another awesome song by a great band! They have such a great beat. I listen to this song nearly every day.

  20. T.... ....

    @MrRyguy69 fuck what a fanboy douchebag.

  21. S.... ....

    I like then too, but I'm afraid their ship has sailed. I'm just not hearing anything top 40 or original enough. I like lots of their stuff but I don't see millions of albums being sold.

  22. T.... ....

    sloan are very hit and miss, imho. flying high again is great, good in everyone is great, this is... meh. must respectfully disagree with the superfans on this one.

  23. t.... ....

    its a mystery these guys are not national acts in the U.S. yet

  24. J.... F....

    Sloan should be the biggest Canadian band in the world. They just didn't market themselves well. They're so damn good.

  25. J.... F....

    Reminds me of awesome Sloan... No Wings, No!

  26. c.... ....

    Reminds me of McCartney and Wings.

  27. J.... R....

    terrible examples...

  28. x.... H....

    i wish MVP show would come back!!!

  29. M.... M....

    ep? idk what that is but if you mean what I think is a good song, bohemian rhapsody is a great song that takes you with it. along with Free Bird(lynyrd skynyrd) and One by metallica, but those are just my thoughts

  30. T.... M....

    cause it's catchy as fuck! lol.

  31. M.... M....

    :| idk what everyone sees in this song, its pretty boring, songs should start soft and get heavier as u get more into the song to take u with it but this song stays at the same level =/

  32. m.... ....

    LOVE this song
    LOVE MVP!!!!!

  33. s.... ....

    Great song and it goes really well on the new show on CBC "MVP - Secret Lives of Hockey Wives"....perfect~~!!!
