Canadian Idiot lyrics
by Weird Al Yankovic



Don't wanna be a Canadian idiot

Don't wanna be some beer-swillin' hockey nut

And do I look like some frost-bitten hosehead?

I never learned my alphabet from A to Zed



They all live on donuts and moose meat

And they leave the house without packing 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 talking 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 driving a Zamboni

All over Saskatchewan



Don't wanna be a Canadian idiot

Won't figure out the temperature in Celsius

See the map, they're hovering right over us

Tell you the truth, it makes me kinda nervous



Every day it's 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 something

So, quick, before they see it coming

Time for a preemptive strike
