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.

Money City Maniacs Lyrics

Sloan

All youve found is another back door
That no one sees a reason for
At the heart of the travelling band
You have to understand
There's a driving need to hit the yellow line
And the joke is when he awoke his
Body was covered in coke fizz
And the joke is when he awoke his
Body was covered in coke fizz
Hey you
Youve been around for a while
If you'll admit that you were wrong then well admit that were right
Hey you
Come on along for the ride
Well hit the money city if it takes us all night
And the joke is when he awoke his
Body was covered in coke fizz
And the joke is when he awoke his
Body was covered in coke fizz
Hey you
Youve been around for a while
If youll admit that you were wrong then well admit that were right
Take the heart of the travelling band
Youll never understand that
All they know is the yellow line, yeah
And the joke is when he awoke his
Body was covered in coke fizz
And the joke is when he awoke his
Body was covered in coke, yeah yeah yeah
Joke is when he awoke his
Body was covered in coke, yeah yeah yeah
Joke is when he awoke his
Body was covered in coke fizz
