TOY BAND lyrics : "CANADA, IDLE NO MORE"
It's been said
This ain't CANADA
Those values 'been bled
This ain't CANADA
We've all read
This ain't CANADA
Such quaint ideals are dead
'Cause this ain't CANADA
This ain't CANADA no more
This ain't CANADA
Five meters from the fence
This ain't CANADA
Just inept pretense
This ain't CANADA
It's fake lake expense
This ain't CANADA
Just federal offense
Chorus:
Ask the lucky few who were born here
Or those who've lived here for a while
"Is this the same homeland that grew us
Or drew us near across so many miles?"
No, this ain't CANADA
This ain't CANADA no more
This ain't CANADA
Once proud native land
This ain't CANADA
Its now a petro-brand
This ain't CANADA
We're just oil and sand
This ain't CANADA
Some call it Harperland
This ain't CANADA
Twenty-eleven hence
This ain't CANADA
Ask Theresa Spence
This ain't CANADA
It's just corporate fat
This ain't CANADA
It's Attawapiskat
No, this ain't Canada
This ain't CANADA no more.
This ain't CANADA
That light burns dim
This ain't CANADA
Even the fish won't swim
This ain't CANADA
Left out on this limb
This ain't CANADA
Just Harperland's whim
Repeat Chorus
This ain't CANADA
We're off the rails
This ain't CANADA
It's all jets and jails
This ain't CANADA
It's bitumen sales
This ain't CANADA
Just epic ethics fail
No this ain't CANADA
If we don't care
This ain't CANADA
If we don't do our share
This ain't CANADA
If we don't rock the boat
And this ain't CANADA
If we don't step up and vote
