This Is A Song That Will Only Make Sense To Canadians

We all speak another language like 'bonjour, comment ça va?"
And always answer 'ça va bien' or 'comme ci comme ça'
This is a song that will only make sense to Canadians
Our kids use pencil crayons to colour maple leaves red
And they know our ABCs will always end with a Z

This is a song that will only make sense to Canadians
This is a song that will only make sense to Canadians
The words are still in english but to you they might sound all wrong
I'm sorry if you don't understand
But I'm talking to my friends from our home and native land
This is a song that will only make sense to Canadians

We'll play a game of shitty just to keep us out of trouble
Head down to the coffee shop to get timbits and double doubles
This is a song that will only make sense to Canadians
Get in a snowball fight and knock the touque right off his noggin
Then make amends and take him for a rip on your toboggan

This is a song that will only make sense to Canadians
This is a song that will only make sense to Canadians
The words are still in english but to you they might sound all wrong
I'm sorry if you don't understand
But I'm talking to my friends from our home and native land
This is a song that will only make sense to Canadians

Drive a couple clicks to town
Get that craft dinner you've been craving
Grab yourself a bag of milk
And a pack of Peameal Bacon
Later on we'll go for dinner, grab some local cuisine
Argue over wether it's pronounced 'Poutine' or 'Poutine'
You can have your fourth of July, we've got Canada Day
But we all know May two four is a better party anyway
You can celebrate it with us, but best be careful here
We'd hate to see you get drunk on one Canadian beer
(It's pretty strong, eh?)

We've got hockey
We've got newfie
We speak french and english too
We know we are right when we spell colour with a U

This is a song that will only make sense to Canadians
We use metric, you use inches
We say loonie, you say buck
You can try to call us hosers, but we don't give a Canuck

Oh, this is a song that will only make sense to Canadians
This is a song that will only make sense to Canadians
The words are still in english but to you they might sound all wrong
I'm sorry if you don't understand
But I'm talking to my friends from our home and native land
This is a song that will only make sense to Canadians
Oh Canada
