Part 1
Got friend in ..,
know some winders kissing N.Y.,
I wanna buy a motercycle,
And cut up to some farm.
Somewhere in this cowshit county,
where the hills are round and green,
round and green, round and green,
where the hills are round and green!
Late nights make me really tired,
all this jamming gives me a headaches,
like listening to earthquakes,
all wired up for rock and roll,
Mama only listens to the radio,
Papa only watches the hockey game,
This suburb rocks with the eddie van Wailers,
God save the Queen-- She made you a MORON
Part 2
Intro
Well I heard Wendel talking to Dave Hodge last night
he said that he was confident and keen
he said that Jacques Plante did`nt die
so all of us could glide
he said that hard work is the ethic of the free.
CHORUS
Wendel was a man with a stick in his hands
he learned how to play in Kelvington S.A.S.K.
You`ll wish that you had died
when Wendel has your hide
`cause he does it the Canadian way
so now we sit around on the couch and watch T.V.,
And we see Wendel leading the team
If god made Clark on the 7th day,
He knew what He was doing if He did......If He did!
CHORUS
Bam Bam.- digga digga damm (4x)
