The only tourist in Havana turns his thoughts homeward

Come, my brothers, let us govern Canada
Let us find our serious heads
Let us dump asbestos on the White House
Let us make the French talk English
Not only here but everywhere
Let us torture the Senate individually
Until they confess
Let us purge the New Party
Let us encourage the dark races
So they'll be lenient when they take over
Let us make the CBC talk English
Let us all lean in one direction
And float down to the coast of Florida
Let us have tourism
Let us flirt with the enemy
Let us smelt pig-iron in our back yards
Let us sell snow to under-developed nations
(It is true one of our national leaders
Was a Roman Catholic?)
Let us terrorize Alaska, let us unite
Church and State
Let us not take it lying down
Let us have two Governor Generals
At the same time
Let us have another official language
Let us determine what it will be
Let us give a Canada Council Fellowship
To the most original suggestion
Let us teach sex in the home to parents
Let us threaten to join the USA
And pull out at the last moment
My brothers, come
Our serious heads are waiting
For us somewhere
Like Gladstone bags abandoned
After a coup d'état
Let us put them on very quickly
Let us maintain a stony silence
On the St lawrence Seaway
