Oh Canada
 I stand on guard for a lot
 But just last week a white girl was shot
 Outside a shopping mall
 Yea, it's written in the press
 That your sweet little town
 Has lost it's 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 still 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
 Just to get in
 You have to sell off your faith
 'Cuz in the valley below
 There is crack and young girls
 But you don't have to believe
 What stays out of your world
