TOY BAND lyrics : "CANADA, IDLE NO MORE"

Well this ain't CANADA
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
