(Lord It's Hard To Be Happy When You're Not) Using The Metric System |
| Twelve inches per foot |
| Two pints in a quart |
| Why don’t we make it easy? |
| The English system of measurement must be linked to history |
| We can use units of ten and convert with ease |
| Like all the other countries |
| I am in command |
| Yes, I am taking a stand |
| From this disease we must be free |
| Good God |
| You’re drunk with your tradition |
| That has no validity |
| Well, I’m intoxicated in support of metrics |
| Come drink a decaliter with me |
| We want metrics |
| We want it now |
| We know we can win |
| I weigh 170 pounds |
| That’s 90 kilograms |
| So metrics can even make you thin |
| Yardsticks are pathetic |
| All the cool things are in metrics |
| For example, here’s just one |
| I’ve got my nine |
| Well, that’s nine millimeters |
| Sounds cooler than my point two something inches gun |
| The powerful if nonexistant they will call me communist |
| Or commie scum |
| But it’s worth it |
| Canadians will think we’re smart |
| At least they’ll think we are not as dumb |
| You’re drunk with your tradition |
| That has no validity |
| Well, I’m intoxicated in support of metrics |
| Come drink a decaliter with me |
| We want metrics |
| We want it now |
| We know we can win |
| I weigh 170 pounds |
| That’s 90 kilograms |
| So metrics can even make you thin |
| The revolution’s here |
| We must overcome at last |
| As we symbolically stick their fucking foot up their fucking ass |
| Guitar! |
| You are drunk with your tradition |
| That has no validity |
| Well, I’m intoxicated in support of metrics |
| Come drink a decaliter with me |
| We want metrics |
| We want it now |
| We know we can win |
| I weigh 170 pounds |
| That’s 90 kilograms |
| So metrics can even make you thin |
