TORONTAUN

Alright What can I tell ya about the Torontaun
Running along the Don without long johns
On foot in the snow going for Wontons
By Spadina then sliding by your Aunt's Lawn

Torontaun! Never froze and won't quit it
When the going gets tough
You know it goes with it
Hitting low digits so frigid no blizzard
Could ever slow down the town Snow Lizard!
A galaxy far away to the GTA
He's swift catch a lift when you see the Jays
Going the right of way, respecting all the Bike Lanes
No complaints 'bout weather – used to the Ice Age
A rare species you'll see him in shorts
Showing support for Hogtown team sports
He the north! In or outdoors on the courts
Hard to ignore the weird horse with the horns
When it comes to winning the Cups and World Serieses
Real serious! No shot? He's not hearing it
In the Six with his Woes every morning yo
Working hard but y'know he can't afford a home

S'all good, that's just the life of the Torontaun!
Running along the Don without long johns
On foot in the snow going for Wontons
By Spadina then sliding by your Aunt's Lawn

It's quite a sight if you ever catch him gallop eh
More famous than Matt Galloway or Halladay /
They say he Immigrated to the dot from Hoth /
Loves TIFF and hitting coffee shops a lot /
Got a Broadview of the city like Riverdale Park /
Chilling on a patio sipping ales dark /
Reading Atwood, listening to Jeff Healey /
“Is he actually 2 meters tall?” Yes, really /
Torontaun! He's everything you heard yo /
Four nostrils, claws and a fur coat /
Tourists go on the hunt in rain or snow /
My cousin got a pic in front of the AGO /
And hey you know he supports The ROM 'cause /
They don't have any exhibits on Wampas /
He knows he's hot – doesn't need to brag /
Plus when he's dead you can use him as a sleeping bag /

S'all good, that's just the life of the Torontaun!
Running along the Don without long johns /
On foot in the snow going for Wontons /
By Spadina then sliding by your Aunt's Lawn /

Subzero Temps no problem to handle /
The only Star Camel who's friends with Mark Hamill /
Islington to Kennedy to Echo Base /
In the summer you can catch him at the EX all day /
OK! And if you didn't know, well you know now /
Give him a shovel and he's a snow plow /
So proud! Survived Empire Strikes Back /
Blackouts, SARS and Mayors on Crack /
Yeah! That's the Torontaun! Jogging Woodlawn all the way up to Vauhghn
Spell it's name in a strong font /
Invite him out to your restaurant's launch /
The one and only Torontaun /

Or the Saskatchewan-Taun /
VanBantha? You got the wrong song /
