Oh Canada |
Oh, Canada |
I stand on guard for a lot |
But just last week |
A white girl was shot |
Outside a shopping mall |
Yeah, it’s written in the press |
That your sweet little town |
Has lost its innocence |
It’s not the year of the gun |
We don’t say it out loud |
There are no headlines |
When a black girl dies |
It’s not the lack of a sense |
It’s called ambivalence |
All in their lanes |
Under rush hour lights |
There’s one head to a car |
But you act so surprised |
When the snow don’t come |
You can’t swim in the lakes |
Now it’s hotter than hell |
In a bed you won’t make |
It’s not the lack of a sense |
It’s called ambivalence |
Up on the hill |
Is the best real estate |
Baby, just to get in |
You have to sell off your faith |
‘Cause in the valley below |
There is crack and young girls |
You don’t have to believe |
What stays out of your world |
It’s not the year of the gun |
We don’t say it out loud |
There are no headlines |
When a black girl dies |
It’s not the lack of a sense |
It’s called ambivalence |
