Oh Canada Lyrics

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've got 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
