Middle school for me. I started listening after Old World Underground. I only met one person in high school who listened to Metric and she was from another school.
Was in Williamsburg last summer and this song popped into my head. If you ever get off the L train at Bedford Ave and walk to the waterfront playing this album you will totally understand all of the references of this song and On The Sly as well.
Lyrics: Sort of wonder why No one said a word Don't you like it on the sly Don't you like it 'till it hurts Have I been on your mind What's a voice without a song Something in your head You've been fighting all the long I don't want to say it The news is not so good We'll never get away And even if we could We'd just play the tambourine Around an open flame Oversleep and burn To be back in the game 'Cause summer never comes Nowhere near high noon And winter never comes Nor the harvest moon Raw sugar I don't want to die Living in a high rise grave My baby come home Same black day High rise grave Raw sugar I don't want to die Living in a high rise grave My baby come home Same black day High rise grave No I'm not complaining Yes it could be worse Ferment on the wish bone Match the lips to the purse Neighborhood's a runway Fry the ass and thighs Dirty diamond dealers Pushed behind the ire's And summer never comes Nowhere near high noon And winter never comes Nor the harvest moon Raw sugar I don't want to die Living in a high rise grave My baby come home Same black day High rise grave Raw sugar I don't want to die Living in a high rise grave My baby come home Same black day High rise grave Still I wear the red dress Paint my toes and twirl Take it back to old times Back when I was still a girl 'Cause now I'm all baboon boys Cootchie cootchie coo Sort of wonder why I missed a kiss for you 'Cause summer never comes Same black day High rise grave Winter never comes Summer never comes Summer never comes Summer never comes
This is when they were experimenting more with their music, so it's an outlier even for Metric. Their next album is the one that got them attention and more in the US than in Canada.
Love metric and only just heard this
Lovely !!!!
This album completely took me over in senior year of high school, so the 'high school' comments make me very happy.
Paul Brandt I totally know what you mean
How tf u copy a 3 yr old comment in such a small comment section lol

Wow! Thank you for this reference.
Lyrics:
Sort of wonder why
No one said a word
Don't you like it on the sly
Don't you like it 'till it hurts
Have I been on your mind
What's a voice without a song
Something in your head
You've been fighting all the long
I don't want to say it
The news is not so good
We'll never get away
And even if we could
We'd just play the tambourine
Around an open flame
Oversleep and burn
To be back in the game
'Cause summer never comes
Nowhere near high noon
And winter never comes
Nor the harvest moon
Raw sugar
I don't want to die
Living in a high rise grave
My baby come home
Same black day
High rise grave
Raw sugar
I don't want to die
Living in a high rise grave
My baby come home
Same black day
High rise grave
No I'm not complaining
Yes it could be worse
Ferment on the wish bone
Match the lips to the purse
Neighborhood's a runway
Fry the ass and thighs
Dirty diamond dealers
Pushed behind the ire's
And summer never comes
Nowhere near high noon
And winter never comes
Nor the harvest moon
Raw sugar
I don't want to die
Living in a high rise grave
My baby come home
Same black day
High rise grave
Raw sugar
I don't want to die
Living in a high rise grave
My baby come home
Same black day
High rise grave
Still I wear the red dress
Paint my toes and twirl
Take it back to old times
Back when I was still a girl
'Cause now I'm all baboon boys
Cootchie cootchie coo
Sort of wonder why
I missed a kiss for you
'Cause summer never comes
Same black day
High rise grave
Winter never comes
Summer never comes
Summer never comes
Summer never comes
Thanks babe !
even though the end is not that precise. You should modify it
Heard this song on pandora it's really good don't know why it isn't more popular
Because some times people suck.
i kinda always love when good music isnt well known. gives me a chance to share it

Tommy Segura?
It's off of an earlier album I think, and so nobody heard it before they heard help I'm alive and some of the other ones that are popular now
