I’ve always preferred the Ouija board
’Cause it feels like you’re sending a text
Text is my favorite way to talk in this world
It’ll be my preferred method in the next
Using a medium feels like a phone call
A phone call made by a stranger
If I’m not gonna pick up right now
What makes you think I will later
Ask me anything you want to know now
I don’t care if it’s the middle of the night
If you’re gonna interrupt me eventually
I’d rather it happen on earth than in the afterlife
I’ve got some friends who lost an uncle
They swore he was hoarding gold
He passed before he gave up the location
Sadly, he really wasn’t that old
They dialed him up through a medium
Hands held together in a parlor
The only message that came through was
“I never had any gold you seek
So please stop being a bother.”
Ask me anything you want to know now
I don’t care if it’s the middle of the night
If you’re gonna interrupt me eventually
I’d rather it happen on earth than in the afterlife
To try to discourage future conversations
I’ve written down everything about myself
In a couple spiral notebooks
To be released after my death
Anything you’d ever need to know
Is written down on those pages
Passwords, bank account numbers
Preferred funeral arrangements
I’m not a person with additional secrets
And I hope you can believe that
Ask me anything you want to know now
I don’t care if it’s the middle of the night
If you’re gonna interrupt me eventually
I’d rather it happen on earth than in the afterlife
If there’s anything I forgot to write down
Eventually you can say it right to my face
Oh, that is, of course… oh, that is, of course
If we end up in the same place
I’ve always preferred the Ouija board

My Bowen Island Girl
🇨🇦☘️ 🇨🇦☘️ 🇨🇦☘️ 🇨🇦☘️ 🇨🇦☘️ 🇨🇦☘️
(Yeah, woo-oh-oh!)
Hey, hey, let’s go!
[Verse 1 ]
She played a hand drum down at Doc Morgan’s bar (hey!)
Tappin’ out a rhythm underneath the stars (woo!)
She asked me where I’m from, I said “Not too far,”
But tonight, this whole world’s ours
We took a ferry ride from Snug Cove to the moon (hey!)
Her laugh was a melody, a sweet Bowen tune (woo!)
By Killarney Lake, ‘ccompanied by the loons
I swore I’d see her again real soon
[Pre-Chorus ]
We were swayin’ down Bowen Bay
With the salt and cedar in the air that day
She stole my heart in a West Coast way
And I just had to say…
[Chorus ]
I met a Bowen Island girl, with her bare feet on the pier (hey!)
She danced like the tide rolls in, and the whole world disappeared (woo-oh-oh)
From Artisan Square to Tunstall Bay, she’s got my soul in a whirl (hey hey!)
Oh, my Bowen Island girl, yeah, my Bowen Island girl
[Verse 2 ]
We shared a sunset up on Mount Gardner’s crest (hey!)
The ocean spread wide, the sky was dressed (woo!)
In pink and gold, we just sat and confessed
That this island’s magic, and so’s the rest
We grabbed a coffee at the Snug Café
Talked about the ferry that’s late most days
She laughed out loud in that Bowen way
And I knew I just couldn’t stay away
[Pre-Chorus ]
We were swayin’ down Bowen Bay
With the driftwood bonfire keeping night at bay
She stole my heart in a West Coast way
And I just had to say…
[Chorus ]
I met a Bowen Island girl, with her bare feet on the pier (hey!)
She danced like the tide rolls in, and the whole world disappeared (woo-oh-oh)
From Artisan Square to Tunstall Bay, she’s got my soul in a whirl (ho ho!)
Oh, my Bowen Island girl, yeah, my Bowen Island girl
[Bridge]
Now every ferry ride (ride!) I’m thinking of her eyes (eyes!)
Every path through the forest, every painted sky (sky!)
From Deep Bay to Eagle Cliff, I’m hypnotized (woo!)
By that Bowen Island girl in the moonrise (moonrise!)
[Chorus ]
I met a Bowen Island girl, with her bare feet on the pier (hey!)
She danced like the tide rolls in, and the whole world disappeared (woo-oh-oh)
From Artisan Square to Tunstall Bay, she’s got my soul in a whirl (hey hey!)
Oh, my Bowen Island girl, yeah, my Bowen Island girl
[Outro ]
Bowen Island girl… (hey hey hey)
Yeah, my Bowen Island girl… (hey hey!) My Bowen Island Girl](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/HlioVpVZ1lM/mqdefault.jpg)
![She is Lake Ontario
She is Lake Ontario
[Intro]
What lake is this?
Lake Ontario!
What name shall stand?
Lake Ontario!
[Verse 1]
They signed a page in Washington
And held it to the light
Then claimed a stroke of ink could make
An ancient name take flight
But paper cannot turn the tide
Or make the wind obey
She was Lake Ontario
And Ontario she’ll stay
[Chorus]
Heave away, Ontario
Let the cold northwester blow
From the Scarborough Bluffs to old Oswego
Every harbour, hull, and sailor knows
Print what you like upon the maps you show
She was Lake Ontario
She is Lake Ontario
And Lake Ontario she’ll stay
[Verse 2]
Before the stars and stripes were sewn
Before the maple flew
Her name came from the peoples here
Before those borders grew
No president invented her
No order made her waves
She rolled before their flags were flown
And she will roll beyond their days
[Chorus]
Heave away, Ontario
Let the cold northwester blow
From the Scarborough Bluffs to old Oswego
Every harbour, hull, and sailor knows
Print what you like upon the maps you show
She was Lake Ontario
She is Lake Ontario
And Lake Ontario she’ll stay
[Verse 3]
You may command your clerks to type
Whatever suits the day
And scrape the name Ontario
From every chart they make
From Kingston down to Rochester
The answer rides the spray
You haven’t changed the lake at all
You’ve only changed your page
[Chorus]
Heave away, Ontario
Let the cold northwester blow
From the Scarborough Bluffs to old Oswego
Every harbour, hull, and sailor knows
Print what you like upon the maps you show
She was Lake Ontario
She is Lake Ontario
And Lake Ontario she’ll stay
[Verse 4]
A lake that lies between two lands
Can’t bow to one alone
You named the whole as though the lake
Were yours and yours alone
The border’s drawn upon the map
But water slips away
No wave will carry a passport
No wind heeds what you say
[Breakdown]
Can ink command the water?
No!
Can one man own the shore?
No!
And what do we still call her?
Ontario evermore!
[Verse 5]
Raise a glass in Hamilton
Let Toronto join the song
From Picton through the Thousand Isles
Let every voice sing strong
For boastful names will come and go
Like foam upon the bay
But she was Lake Ontario
And Ontario she’ll stay
[Final Chorus]
Heave away, Ontario
Let the cold northwester blow
From the Scarborough Bluffs to old Oswego
Every harbour, hull, and sailor knows
Print what you like upon the maps you show
She was Lake Ontario
She is Lake Ontario
And Lake Ontario she’ll stay
[Outro]
She was Lake Ontario
Long before this present day
She was Lake Ontario
And Ontario she’ll stay She is Lake Ontario](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/IBhzaHIjxaQ/mqdefault.jpg)
