Canada is Really Big Shirts

When I look around me,
I can't believe what I see
It seems as if this country
Has lost its will to live

The economy is lousy, (song was written in the early 90's, our economy now is great!)
We barely have an army
But we can still stand proudly
'Cause Canada's really big


We're the second largest country
On this planet Earth
And if Russia
Keeps on shrinking

Then soon we'll be first
(as long as we keep Quebec)

The USA has tanks
And Switzerland has banks

They can keep them, thanks
They just don't amount
'Cause when you get down to it
You find out what the truth is

It isn't what you do with it
It's the size that counts!

Most people
Will tell you

That France is pretty large
But you can put
Fourteen Frances
Into this land of ours

(it'd take a lotta work, it's take a whole lotta work)

We're larger than Malaysia
Almost as big as Asia

We're bigger than Australia
And it's a continent
So big we seldom bother
To go see one another

But we often go to other
Countries for vacation

Our mountains
Are very pointy
Our prairies are not

The rest is
Kinda bumpy
But, man, do we have a lot
(we gotta lot of land, we gotta whole lot of land)


So stand up and be proud
And sing out very loud
We stand out from the crowd 'cause
Canada's really big!
