Far Too Canadian Lyrics

Spirit Of The West – Far Too Canadian Lyrics

from album: Go Figure (1991)
I'm so content to stand in line
Wait and see, pass the time
Talk a streak, fall asleep
Wake up late, whine and weep
I kiss the hand that slaps me senseless
I'm so accepting, I am so defenseless

I am far too Canadian
I am far too Canadian

I pick the bones of what's been done
And I'll lick them clean with a cautious tongue
In dim lit rooms, I'll spill my guts
I'm the revolution when the doors are shut
I bite the hand that slaps me senseless
But my patience it is.. Too relentless

I am far too Canadian
I am far too Canadian

I am the face of my country
Expressionless and small
Weak at the knees, shaken badly
Can't straighten up at all
I watch the spine of my country
Bend and break
I'm in a sorry state

I scratch the walls to mark the days
With my coup-de-tete, I am locked away
With mother Jones, pots of tea
The kitchen poster, anarchy
I never march in demonstration
I hold my breath for arbitration
I am far too Canadian
I am far too Canadian

I am the face of my country
Expressionless and small
Weak at the knees, shaken badly
Can't straighten up at all
I watch the spine of my country
Bend and break
I'm in a sorry state
I am a sorry state
Won't you welcome to the sorry state

Weak at the knees, shaken badly
Can't straighten up at all
Can't straighten up at all
Straighten up at all
All
