Here's a little story about Kermode the bear
Who I met up near Terrace last time I was there
In the Great Bear Rainforest of north western BC
We were both surprised when into my brain
Came the words of the bear, I understood plain
When he asked about the pipeline they want to run out to the sea
I said "Too tell the truth I don't get it neither
The order it comes from our fearless leader
Who rarely leaves his empire in the east
Kermode the bear, said with a frown
"I guess than we best be Ottawa bound
To get some sort of explanation in the least."
On the way we heard the plan
Was to send through treacherous waters to a far away land
Where there's no Human rights, where environmental law is nil
Been sold in service to a nation who
Behind closed doors can always sue,
If we want to wake up and want to prevent an inevitable spill
But then there's Enbridge Co
Who swears it isn't so
And now we're were singing
Goodbye Canada
We use to be a fan of ya
Till this new regime
That wants to muddy up the waters make terrorist fodder
Out of all of us who say green
A disturbing lack of common sense
Wont show where the money went
And rides the omnibus for fun
As for our former rights and freedoms
They must think we do not need em
Oh Canada what have we done?
Kermode asked "What does Science say?"
I said "The Top's bottom line ain't listening they've thrown it away,
Along with muzzling the scientists, and slashing the CBC
They got plenty of our money for action ads and fighter jets
To placate and intimidate, and hopefully have us all forget
Before the next election, unless enough of us actually see."
That this Prime Minister
Is awfully Sinister
And the world sings
Goodbye Canada
We use to be a fan of ya
Till this new regime
That wants to muddy up the waters make terrorist fodder
Out of anybody who says green
For anyone who thinks I'm flawed
Look at the spill in Arkansas
Exxon Valdezz's or that BP one
I really do not understand
Heads this far in the sand
Oh Canada what have we done?
As we made our way through northern Alberta
Kermode started choking on the poisonous dirt AH-CHOO!
He sneezed out the highly toxic TAR soil
Then poor little bear started to cry
When he saw all the living things around him had died
And then his bear blood really started to boil
He just didn't get it and wondered why
Could a minority of Canadians elect a majority of lies
Who refuse to show where tax dollars are spent,
Who make robocalls, bad calls and do it all in secrecy
Table the budget but never reveal the fee
And boast the ONLY Prime Minister to ever be found in contempt!
Oh the irony
Is his contempt for thee
Goodbye Canada
We use to be a fan of ya
Till this new regime That wants to
muddy up the waters and make terrorist fodder
Out of all of us who says green
They refuse to toe the line and
Have us handcuffed to China
And when science they plainly shun
Its only a matter of time
Before our water turns to slime
Oh Canada what have we done?
Finally we made it to Sussex Drive
The bear was as mad as any being alive
As he traveled up to the Prime Ministers home
He'd been holding in since we left the coast
And a bare bum holds more *** then most
So on the front step he laid a little crude black pipe of his own!
Well the day was hot and the stench got sharper
When out of the house marched PM Harper
Who slipped in the mess beneath his well buffed Gucci heels
He said to the Bear "Hey man what gives?
This is where I eat and sleep and live!"
And Kermode the Bear said "I know exactly how you feel!"
The bear and I had to take it on home
To put out the word, by mouth or smart phone
Talk to your friends about their country's imminent plight
Write a blog, a letter or even a song!
It's not that left is right or what's right is wrong
It's that when something is wrong you got to stand up and fight!
Land of tyranny
So we're pleading
Wake up Canada
Let's make a better plan for ya
Together I know we can
We can be a leading nation
In sustainable innovation
Not war on our beautiful land
Remember you have a voice
You also have a choice
Demand a leader who actually cares
Wont sell out with impudence
To oily foreign influence,
And *** off Kermode the Bear
Instead of taking photo ops with Panda bears!
