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 |
