Spirit of the west - Far too canadian lyrics

rate me

I'm so content to stand in line,

wait and see, pass the time,

talk a streak, fall asleep,

wake up late, whine and weep,

I kiss the hand that slaps me senseless,

I'm so accepting, I am so defenseless,

I am far too Canadian,

I am far too Canadian,

I pick the bones of what's been done,

and I'll lick them clean with a cautious tongue,

in dim lit rooms, I'll spill my guts,

I'm the revolution when the doors are shut,

I bite the hand that slaps me senseless,

but my patience it is.. too relentless,

I am far too Canadian,

I am far too Canadian,

I am the face of my country,

expressionless and small,

weak at the knees, shaken badly,

can't straighten up at all,

I watch the spine of my country,

bend and break,

I'm in a sorry state,

I scratch the walls to mark the days,

with my coup-de-tete, I am locked away,

with mother Jones, pots of tea,

the kitchen poster, anarchy,

I never march in demonstration,

I hold my breath for arbitration,

I am far too Canadian,

I am far too Canadian,

I am the face of my country,

expressionless and small,

weak at the knees, shaken badly,

can't straighten up at all,

I watch the spine of my country,

bend and break,

I'm in a sorry state,

I am a sorry state,

won't you welcome to the sorry state,

weak at the knees, shaken badly,

can't straighten up at all,

can't straighten up at all,

straighten up at all,

all.<br />
