“If Day for Winnipeg”, of course a reference to the 1942 simulated Nazi invasions in Canada, is noted by
John Flansburgh as “an electronic music box powered entirely by nightmare fuel.”
A song making many references to a catastrophic event such as a foreign invasion, it was released on TMBG’s 2021...
[Verse 1]
Whoever cared about topical things?
But now that this day has arrived
Here's a new song for our zero-piece band
And everyone else who's survived
[Chorus]
If Day is for everyone
Not just for Winnipeg
If Day is for everyone from now on
If Day is for everyone and they're coming for us
If Day is for everyone from now on
[Bridge]
Hey I'm guilty, put on the cuffs
I've broken Godwin's law
Master of the obvious, I confess
[Verse 2]
It all began as an agitprop stunt
Costumes and chants from a crowd
Now broken chairs and some thousand-yard stares
And thoughts no one dared say out loud
[Chorus]
If Day is for everyone
Not just for Winnipeg
If Day is for everyone from now on
If Day is for everyone and they're coming for us
If Day is for everyone from now on
If Day for Winnipeg was written by John Flansburgh & John Linnell.
