Title: Canada (Or “Canada 2000, summer on the Praires”)

Artist: Devin Townsend

Album: Terria

To all the canuckleheads out there, happy Canada Day!

Lyrics below: (Not entirely sure about the lyrics for some of the background vocals on this one, but transcribed how I heard it.)

The road, It's home, At least for now, the river's low

Wake me, please wake me, It's cold and warm on the prairie freeway

(One upon a time, in a little tiny tree with a nest in it, lived a bird. And the bird, didn't have a mom and dad..)

All the time I needed your approval to be me All that time spent waiting for the jury duty.. More than ever I needed Mora (then.. since then.. since then.. since then.. since..) More than Mora means... (then.. since then.. since then.. since then.. since..) Be whatever you must be to get by.. (then.. since then.. since then.. since then.. since.. then.. since then..)

Get by..

Its oil, (Get by, get by, get by, get by,) Its wheat, (Get by, get by, get by, get by,) Its soil, (Get by, get by, get by, get by,) Its meat, (Get by, get by, get by, get by,) Its beef!

The road! (The world I know..) It's home! (The world is home..) The mountain high! (The world is high..) River low..! (..Low..)

Wake me, please wake me.. When it's my.. turn to drive.. (and I..) Only the lonely (and maybe John Denver) know the Canadian freeway..

[Unintelligible spoken audio clips mixed into the music. This fades into a more intelligible french radio broadcast towards the end, as it transitions into "Down and Under".]
