    Lyrics:
    can't explain my ankle sprain
    i didn't really feel it
    new dress could turn your head
    but how long til we reel it in?
    paradise and i find myself paralyzed
    knowing all too well
    blue rev behind the rink i didn't really need it
    circumspect when you call collect
    to see if i would keep it
    paradise and i find myself paralyzed
    knowing all too well terrified
    but i'll find my way
    moving to the country
    gonna have that baby
    wait tables in town
    i know word gets around
    moving to the country
    gonna have this baby
    see how it goes
    see how it grows
    and i find myself paralyzed
    knowing all too well terrified
    but i’ll find my way
    i'll egress to inverness with nothing in my pocket
    belinda says that heaven is a place on earth
    well so is hell
    and we’ll all get help paradise
    and we’ll start another life

    For the non-Canadians and young Canadians… “MUCK” is a reference to “Much Music”, Canada’s MTV. The globe logo with “MUCH” was in the corner of the MV’s our childhood

      Beautiful. Both are on Earth - it is what you make of it. The character in the song could either choose hell or heaven, and through love she chose heaven and had the baby and started a new life somewhere with nothing but hope in that love and that things will be good. Very good songwriting.

    Rev is a 7% ABV vodka-based cola beverage, infused with guarana. Originally manufactured by FBM Distilleries in Brampton, Ontario, Canada and distributed exclusively within the country under license from Bacardi. It is currently available in blue as Rev Energy. It is also available in pink and yellow. BTW, great song, great band!
