Canada Is Really Big (live)

(spoken)
Thank you very much! Now we are very, uh, patriotic Canadians and, uh, we'd like to take this moment to um, to do our national anthem that we wrote.

(song)

When I look around me
I can't believe what I see
It seems as if this country
Has lost it's will to live

The economy is lousy
We barely have an army
But we can still stand proudly
'Cause Canada is really big

We're the second
largest country
On this planet earth
And if Russia
keeps on shrinking
Then soon we will be first
(as long as we keep Quebec)

The USA has tanks
And Switzerland has banks
They can keep them fanks(?)
They just don't amount

'Cause when you get down to it
You find out what the truth is
It isn't what you do with it
It's the size that counts

Those people will tell you
That France is pretty large
But you can put fourteen Frances
Into this land of ours
(facing a lot of work.
that'd take a whole lot of work.)

We're larger than Malasia
Almost as big as Asia
We're bigger than Australia
And that's a Continent

So big we sell them butter
To go see one another
Though we often go to other
Countries for vacations

Our mountains are very pointy
Are prairies are not
The rest is kinda bumpy
But man do we have a lot!
(we got a lot of land,
we got a whole lot of land)

So stand up and be proud
And sing out very loud
We stand out from the crowd
'Cause Canada's really big
