Ahhh now it makes sense

So today randomly (I think it was in the They Might Be Giants I-tunes playlist) I came across this song by Frank Black, it was called "Manitoba", and since that I where I spent the better part of 26 years of my life I became interested.

So I listened to the sample, and it turns out that it was a song that they always used to play on the University of Manitoba (my alma mater, Semper Fi -(fist pump) Man Man Man) radio station. Now it makes sense why the Dj's played it all the time way back in 2003, not that it's a bad song, it just makes more sense.

Manitoba

Up in Manitoba,
the sky was very blue
People were a few,
and nights were never colder

Once I heard a wailing sound
The sky had turned to red
So I got up from my bed
And I wandered far from town

[CHORUS]
I have seen the face of God
And I was not afraid
I have seen the face of God
And I have dearly paid

The darkness came right down on me
There were no more lights to follow
So I slept inside the hollow
Of a dead and fallen tree

Did you know three days I tried
To wake myself? But, no
My flesh had turned to snow
And i thought that I had died

[CHORUS]

And though I had it rough
They got me home in time
They gave me homemade wine
But it was not enough

The cold had made me dumb
And I was sent away
These walls are here today
For fifty years and some

Note, the Semper Fi, fist pump is meant as a joke, in no way shape or form did I have any "school Spirit"
