The New Pornographers é um grupo vindo do Canadá. O grupo se formou em 1997 em Vancouver. A música deles é altamente influenciada por bandas como The Cars e Cheap Trick, apesar de que suas músicas são dotadas de uma grande complexidade harmônica e melódica. Carl Newman, que escrever a maior parte do material da banda, disse, "Quando eu comecei a compor seriamente, minhas maiores influências eram, como, Burt Bacharach, Jimmy Webb, e Brian Wilson.

Intro: C#F# x4
C#F# Both eyes drinking cool water,
AG# Not the first daughter so I can't see
C#F# Why you're wrestling with words at last,
C#F# A tradition you've long outclassed.
C#F# Come true for the new martyrs,

C#F# You're addressing the world from your bed,

AG# All her back-story has been wiped clean.
C#F# Just another apocryphal mess,
C#F# Never promised 'em anything less.
C#F# So come true, these are safe waters
AG# For the first daughter, so I can't see
C#F# Why you're pushing the pull that you've had,
C#AE While the rest of the girls go bad.
F#C# Come true, it's only divine right.
F#C# Come true, it's only divine right.

BG# For the new shock, seeing us then,
F#G# When we were the real people,
F#G# We were the real people.
C#F# x4
C#F# Face down in the old money,
AG# Left the crowd wondering what your next move's
