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.

If It Feels Good Do It (radio Edit 1) Lyrics

Sloan

I can't invest my time
I've tried it all and I'm tired of trying
You think you've got it all figured out
and everything that it's about
when you found yourself finally released
you hit the ground and kept running east
and now it's all catching up to you
as these things usually do
saw it all and I can't deny
it's a hard life living a lie
If it feels good do it even if you shouldn't
don't let people mess you around
feels go do it even if you shouldn't
nobody can mess you around
saw it all and I can't deny
it's a hard life living a lie
you're running away
things would have been different
if you decided to stay
you can't wear you heart on your sleeve
if you're just going to leave
I can't invest my time
I've tried it all and I'm tired of trying
saw it all and I can't deny
it's a hard life living a lie
