Propagandhi - Things I Like lyrics

rate me

I like Kurt Russel as Captain Ron.

Grace Under Pressure on in almost any circumstance.

I like dark planetariums.

I like when she wears them low-cut shirts and yoga pants.

I like unbroken snow on lodgepole pine boughs.

The rusty pump of a jay's forest communiqué.

And I like a rowdy fuckin' Pride parade.

I like how Hedges tells it like it is.

I like the sciences. I like profound mysteries.

I like The Supremes' "You Can't Hurry Love"

and the emergence of competing histories.

And I like the Maple Leafs

cuz they remind me of me:

inconsistent, fragile, internationally reviled.

I like allegories. Cinderella stories.

Ahow ndinawemaaganiidog, Wabanakwut ndigo

(Hello my relatives, I am known as Grey Cloud)

Aapijii iinzan mewinzhaa kete-Anishinaabeg gii-soongideewag

(Apparently a long, long time ago the ancient Native people were strong hearted)

Kii-gichi-anokiiwag, kii-jiikendamoog

(They worked hard, they were happy)

Aapijii iinzan kii-chikinaagoziwag

(Apparently they really looked good)

Kete-anishinaabeg ogii-wiidookaawiiwaa shaaganaashiiwag

(The ancient ones supported the Europeans)

Gegoo wiin wiikaa oniikesiidaa

(Lets not forget that)

Pizaaniigo nagamok! Nagamok isina!

(Go ahead and sing you guys! Sing real hard guys!)

I like speculative fiction: dark narratives

of the future that looms. Of our impending doom.
