Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Violins and tambourines
This is what we think they mean
It's hard to say, it's sad but true
I'm kinda dumb and so are you
[Verse 2]
When the mystique varies thus
You can send a man to bury us
It's hard to say, it's sad but true
I'm kinda dumb and so are you
[Verse 3]
The last of the unplucked gems
The last of the unplucked gems
The last of the unplucked gems
Written by: Bobby Baker, Gord Sinclair, Gordon Edgar Downie, John Fay
