The Arrogant Worms - The Canadian Crisis Song lyrics

Often on the weekend I'll jump in my car I won't fill up the tank although I'm going far And if somebody asks me if I'm going to a bar I'll say I'm shopping 'cross the border in the USA I don't go down there to buy my groceries I respect our farmers and our factories I don't believe that "local" means it's poor in quality It's just our goddamn prices are too high (If he stays away for just two days) I'll get one hundred dollars duty-free If it adds to more I won't claim it for (He won't declare the products if they're in his trunk) Although it is Canada that I call home I don't cheer for the Yankees when I'm in the Dome I didn't swell with pride during the Desert Storm It's just that I don't want to pay the tax (It's just that he's too cheap to pay the tax) (Yes, it's just like this, he's a loyalist) I'll only shop at malls that fly our flag (And he'll tell Bob Rae that he just won't pay) Unless I need my unemployment benefits (Get a job, get a job, get a job) Now everyone is doing the same thing as me They're doing what they can to beat the GST They're lining up for miles at the Duty-Free So I bought a JC Penny's store in Buffalo (So everybody come on down to Buffalo) (Cause if you stay away for just two days) You'll get one hundred dollars duty-free Though it's not at par it'll still go far And it ends up in the pockets of a country man (It ends up in the pockets of a country man) Oh, Canada.
