Every Irrelevance

 




Every Irrelevance as performed in Milwaukee on December 12, 1998
 
There's no sound so profound can even be heard
No silence or violence can't be disturbed
Just say it, display it, sing out like a bird
So it's a secret, I'll keep it, I'll give you my word
And all at once, I know I don't make any sense
I fell in love with your every irrelevance

These loose words go unheard, what's it matter to us
'Cause we're friends, and in the end it's all about trust
Just say it, display it, sing out like a bird
The secret, I'll keep it, I give you my word
All at once life's richness and consequence
I found it your every irrelevance
All at once life's richness and consequence
Appeared in your every irrelevance

As performed by Gord Downie and the Rheostatics

There's no sound so profound, can't even be heard
No reliance on science, can't be disturbed
So just say it, don't spray it, sing out like a bird
If it's a secret, I'll keep it, I'll give you my word

Even though I know it don't make any sense
I'm in love with your every irrelevance

Catharsis, my arse is capable of more flush
An exposure, just for closure, won't accomplish much

These loose words, go unheard, what's it matter to us
Cause we're friends, in essence, that's all about trust
And all at once, life's richness and consequence
Is found in your every irrelevance

Even though I know it don't make any sense
I'm in love with your every irrelevance

We'll get over it this time, this time
We'll see over it this time, this time

We'll see over it this time
