Ode To The Divided States of America

 

Here I sit broken hearted

For our neighbours logic has departed

Latter years they were a good friend

Now I fear this has come to an end

A billionaire and a felon

Appears to me have lost their melon

What comes next is Canada’s flex

Our strength will show tariffs must go

Yet I fear the trade war is here

And our politicians cannot agree

To them it’s not about you or me

They argue from their comfy home

Leaving us to stand alone

A threat to be another state

Is not to be Canada’s fate

They need our power to keep lights on

And our lumber so I am told

For the Cali fires were so bold

For us it’s sour

We should withhold the power

Leave them in darkness hour after hour

Being treated like a fool

Time to send them back to school

So stand you tall and watch them fall

For Canada is strong you see

The Yankees are wrong trust in me

For we shall always be

THE TRUE NORTH,

STRONG AND FREE!
