Try To Remember
(Sung to the tune of "Try To Remember" by The Kingston Trio)
Guest song parody by Sara Rose, ariel@runesofao.com

(instrumental intro)

Try to remember when Canada's dollars
Were worth as much as U.S funds were.
Try to remember when our U.S. dollars
Were just as strong as British pounds were.
Try to remember when you could buy gas
For a dollar a gallon, oh what days those were!
Try to remember and if you remember then listen,
Listen, listen, listen, listen, listen...

If Smirk has his way, our dollar'll be worth less than Canada's,
Won't that be thrilling!
If Smirk has his way at the gas pump, we'll pay with mortgage deeds
And our gold fillings!
If Smirk has his way the British can buy us for a liter of petrol
And a handful of shillings.
If Smirk has his way, the middle class will pay.
He's screwed us!
Screwed us, screwed us, screwed us, screwed us, screwed us...

If you have dreams of real jobs for your kids,
Health insurance not... just for the wealthy.
If you have dreams of the stock market rising,
Preventive care to keep us healthy.
If you have dreams of retiring in comfort,
Of making ends meet, then we can't be stealthy.
If you have dreams, friend, then act on your dreams, friend,
And fight Smirk!
Fight Smirk, fight Smirk, fight Smirk, fight Smirk, fight Smirk...
