Another cool version of this one! Infectious vibe

Straight from the heart and loud with purpose, this track waves a flag of independence with both tenderness and grit. The vocals have a warmth that makes the message feel personal, like a neighbor pulling you aside to speak their truth. Catchy, rootsy, and unapologetically Canadian, it walks the line between protest and friendship with charm and clarity. That chorus sticks like maple syrup on your soul, and the delivery? Firm but fair, like any good neighbor should be. 💨 The kettle hissed, “Oof, that’s the kind of heat diplomacy can’t cool down” 🧊 The ice dispenser clinked, “Cold facts, respectfully served, I felt every line” ☕ The coffee machine whirred, “Woke me up with unity, pride, and a shot of no thanks” Bold, catchy, and built on respect, this track doesn’t pick a fight, it plants a flag.

Hey Todd man, greetings from the 11th province. Love your sentiments here. What a thrill ride of a song, too. Great job here, my friend!

I Don't Wannabe (Your 51st State) - Dance Version

Mr. President, a moment if you please
Let me say to USA as nicely as I can
To leave it along and let us just be friends
Talkin' 'bout my country, my true North, Strong & Free
And like the song says, baby, We Stand On Guard for Thee

I don't wannabe your 51st state, no
I stand on guard for thee, that's my fate now
I don't wannabe, your 51st state, no

Friends like us gotta find a way
To make things right for the USA
Friends and family across the border
It's elbows up when we get in the corner
Where we live is happy home
Reaching for something that ain't your own
We understand you want to grow
Our advice, just leave it alone

Mr. President, a moment if you please
We used to be like brothers now you're coming after me
Mm-hmm we fought together, died together too
And I can't believe this nightmare is all because of you
So let me say to USA as nicely as I can
To leave it along and let us just be friends
Talkin' 'bout my country, my true North, Strong & Free
And like the song says, baby, We Stand On Guard for Thee

I don't wannabe your 51st state, no
I stand on guard for thee, that's my fate now
I don't wannabe your 51st state, no

C'mon, I don't wannabe
Never wannabe
I really don't wanna be
I like you very much but I don't wanna be your 51st state

I don't wannabe your 51st state, no
I stand on guard for thee, that's my fate now
I don't wannabe your 51st state, no
