To many, Sloan is one of today's quintessential Canadian bands, as cliche as it might sound. Since their debut EP Peppermintin 1992, the fab four - Halifax natives, now relocated to Toronto - have forged a distinct niche for themselves in the Canadian scene. The outfit includes Jay Ferguson and Patrick Pentland on guitar, Chris Murphy on bass, and Andrew Scott on drums; each have their own unique songwriting voice and style, each contribute equally. Sloan's humble beginnings with the aforementioned EP led them to a signing with David Geffen, where they released Smearedthat same year. Following that album and hailed as "Canada's Nirvana," they took a sharp turn with Twice Removed(1994) and never looked back.

Gimme That Lyrics

Sloan

You gotta gimme that gimme that now
Oh I'm gonna show you how
I don't agree to that greed of that kind
Oh I thought you wouldn't mind

Oh you've gotta gimme that yeah
Oh you've gotta gimme that

You're falling into that into that trap
Oh you're really such a sap
Better get used to it used to it 'cause
Now is not the way it was

Oh better get used to it yeah
Oh better get used to it

Still I can't decide
(You know I can't decide)
Because my hands are tied
(You know know my hands are tied)
I wouldn't wait and see
(You shouldn't wait and see)
If it were up to me
(If it were up to me)
You know I can't decide
You know know my hands are tied
You shouldn't wait and see
If it were up to me

So take your nickel back nickel back I'm
Oh gunning for a dime
You got the gist of it gist of it now
Oh you're gonna feel my power
