LYRICS
DIFFERENT SHOES (By Larry Sieniuc)

I got my boots 
When I want to go riding…with Melinda
She’s got Pinto Ponies in her mind
We go riding....into the sunset
And we do it Texas style

I got my sealskin 
From the Northwest Territories
I bought them back in 1967
When there was....no Greenpeace
They cost me 25 dollars at the Bay

BUT WHEN I WHEN I GO DANCING 
DANCING WITH MY BABY
I WEAR MY OLD SOFT SHOE

I GOT DIFFERENT SHOES FOR DIFFERENT WEATHER
SOME ARE SUEDE AND SOME ARE LEATHER
SOME ARE BABY COWS FROM NEW JERSEY
AND SOME ARE WILD PIGS FROM
BORNEO….WO…..WO….WO

I GOT DIFFERENT SHOES FOR DIFFERENT WEATHER
SOME ARE SUEDE AND SOME ARE LEATHER
SOME ARE BABY COWS FROM NEW JERSEY
AND SOME ARE WILD PIGS FROM
BORNEO….WO…..WO….WO

I got my Adidas…for when I’m jogging
Running for my life along the river
Or for playing tennis at Bonnie Doon

I got my imports
For drinking cappuccino
I do it at the corner café
Or playing pool all afternoon

I got my brown shoes…when I’m working
They usually go unnoticed
And they are the most acceptable to everyone

CHORUS

Katrina bought me…some moccasins
She put them under the tree
There’re from Santa not from me 

I got my hiking boots…for mountains
They’ve got gorilla grips for steep hills
And lots of padding for rocky fields

CHORUS

LYRICS
A GOOD CANADIAN BEER (Tony Vincent)

Since you went off and left me I feel all so alone
Searching for myself like a dog lookin for his lost bone
I don’t know where you are only that you ‘re not here

AND I CAN'T EVEN BUY MYSELF 
A GOOD CANADIAN BEER

That you took the brand new stereo
Only makes me feel half bad And that your cookings gone
Doesn’t even make me sad
This achin in my heart will pass I do not fear

CHORUS

They paraquoyed the Mexican for others the prices are so high
Now without you by my side I don’t know how I’ll get by
I feel just like my car last week stuck between gears

CHORUS

Even though the strike is over
They still haven’t that American brew
That’s almost as bad as my missing you
They won’t bring in the good stuff
Now the other is all clear

CHORUS

Yeah, they won’t bring in the good stuff
Until the other is all clear

I WAS BORN THE SON OF A MILITARY MAN

I WAS BORN THE SON OF A MILITARY MAN
I was born the son of a military man

My father fought for freedom
For democracy
So that I’d live a better life
So that I’d be free
He gave me things I wanted
Things he couldn’t have
And sent me marching
Down a golden path

CHORUS

He’d talked about the army
From time to time
But I was too young to listen
I didn’t have the time
He knew what he was talking about
He knew some truth
I was down at the Hilton
Drinking Vermouth

LIMOUSINE WINDOWS (By Larry Sieniuc)

Limousine windows
I’m dressed up in black
Your lips are so ruby
My hair is flat
My metal is scrap
Tears are so salty
Your lipstick is smeared
Rouge is so shadowy
My cheeks are so teared
My God is so feared

LIMOUSINE WINDOWS
I'M DRESSED UP IN
BLACK & WHITE

BLACK & WHITE
BLACK & WHITE

Limousine windows
I got links in my cuffs
There’s starch in my collar
I got a dog that ruffs
I got a face that scuffs
Red velvet curtains
Monumental stone
Cause of death is
Unquestionably unknown
Boxed bones alone

CHORUS

Limousine windows
Candlelight flames
Bouquets of flowers
Forgotten names
Crumbling remains
Rock of ages
Grenadine drapes
Unfolding in folds
Deep purple grapes
Angel food cakes

REALLY UNREAL (Larry Sieniuc)

Thin presence, limited action
Black velvet paintings
Fried chicken wings
In the gallery
Aluminium siding, plastic surgery
Platinum teeth
Superbly cooked meat
On the hibachi

REALLY, REALLY REALLY
REALLY UNREAL MAN
REALLY UNREAL MAN
REALLY UNREAL MAN
REALLY, REALLY REALLY
REALLY, REALLY REALLY

Thick action, everybody’s smiling
Puffing cigarettes, petting family pets
On the patio
Sun tanning, barbecuing
Government inspected
Computer tested
Tender baby beef

CHORUS

Clear visions, cloudless skies
Hot summer days, ultra violet rays
In the afternoon
Soft sunset, fluffy clouds
Red velvet skys, banana cream pies
Feathers flutter fly

Who art in heaven
Hallowed be thy name

On earth as it is in heaven
Give us this day

And forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those who trespass against us
And lead us not
Into temptation
But deliver us from evil
For thine is the kingdom
The power and the glory
For ever and ever
Amen

For thine is the kingdom
The power and the glory
For ever and ever

Cause there’s lots of country music

I don’t have to be blue since you left me
Way down south in Tennessee

There’s lots of country stars smoking cigars
Driving around in fancy cars
Lots of love of Jesus all around
With the Batman building in the background

I’m gunna find a gal and settle down
Settle down in Nashville Town
Get married and have a family
Way down south in Tennessee

CHRISTINE WAS A FRIEND OF MINE
SHE DIED ON HIGHWAY 39
CHRISTINE WAS A FRIEND OF MINE
CHRISTINE WAS A FRIEND OF MINE
SHE DIED ON HIGHWAY 39
CHRISTINE WAS A FRIEND OF MINE

The police couldn’t find anybody to blame
I think it’s a crying shame
They found her on the side of the road
On a winter’s night it was really cold
She was in total shock
All she heard was the clock
The ticking of the clock

CHORUS

The authorities couldn’t find anybody to blame
Christina was her name
She looked up into the stars
And waited for a passing car
But nobody came til 3 am
And that’s when she knew it was the end
That’s when she knew it was the end

CHORUS

Somebody threw her out of a truck
Onto the side of the road and said good luck
There’s somebody in a phone booth
Somebody that knows the truth
They’re talking to somebody in a bar
In a bar in Calmar
In a bar in Calmar

CHORUS

Now I go and visit her grave
In the Peace Cemetery where she is buried
It’s a really nice place to go
Right where the Devon River flows
Last time I was there
I saw some cute deer
And I had a really cold beer
I had a really cold beer

CHORUS

Christine
