Canadian Idiot Lyrics By Weird Al Yankovic

    don’t wanna be a canadian idiot
    don’t wanna be some beerswillin’ hockey nut
    and do i look like some frostbitten hosehead
    i never learned my alphabet from a to zed

    they all live on donuts and moose meat
    and they leave the house without packin’ heat
    never even bring their guns to the mall
    and you know what else is too funny
    their stupid monopoly money
    can’t take ’em seriously at all

    well maple syrup and snow’s what they export
    they treat curling just like it’s a real sport
    they think their silly accent is so cute
    can’t understand a thing they’re talkin’ aboot

    sure they’ve got their national healthcare
    cheaper meds low crime rates and clean air
    then again well they’ve got celine dion
    eat their weight in kraft macaroni
    and dream of drivin’ a zamboni
    all over saskatchewan

    don’t wanna be a canadian idiot
    won’t figure out their temperature in celsius
    see the map they’re hoverin’ right over us
    tell you the truth it makes me kinda nervous

    always hear the same kind of story
    break their nose and they’ll just say sorry
    tell me what kind of freaks are that polite
    it’s gotta mean they’re all up to somethin’
    so quick before they see it comin’
    time for a preemptive strike
