TORONTO

Toronto Toronto
Dah dah dee dee
Turawna Turawna
Canadian piranha
You think you’re the whole country
Maybe you are
More closer than far
But you still got some quality

You ain’t got no mountains
An’ you got no sea
But you got Yonge Street
And part of me

Toronto Toronto
Fuddle dee dee
Hog town blue town
Righteously renowned
Into high finance and marketry
More glib and pale
Than Molson’s ale
But you’re not all poverty

It ain’t gettin’ better
It ain’t as free
But you got Yonge Street
And part of me
