April Left With Silence Lyrics
silence silence was the last word we spoke it filled the air heavy with forevers and the failing smells of yesterday "this wasn't my intention..." is now a haunting... the ghost of whispering thoughts i've bled these nights dry with tears so, here's t

Well I used to be a farmer and I made a living fine
I had a little stretch of land along the CP line
But times went by and though I tried, the money wasn't there
And bankers came and took my land and told me "fair is fair"
I looked for every kind of job, the answer always no
"Hire you now?" they'd always laugh, "we just let twenty go!"
The government they promised me a measly little sum
But I've got too much pride to end up just another bum
Then I thought, who gives a damn if all the jobs are gone?
I'm gonna be a PIRATE on th

Waves Goodbye Lyrics
There's an ocean out my window There's beauty in its tears There's an ocean out my window It's crashing in my ears Oh sea, your shelter You dance between my toes When I feel like I can't move forward You carry me like a father Breathing is the hardest th

Chorus:
Cause it's a heave (ho!) hi (ho!) comin' down the plains
Stealin' wheat and barley and all the other grains
It's a ho (hey!) hi (hey!) farmers bar yer doors
When ya see the Jolly Roger on Regina's mighty shores

Well, you'd think the local farmers would know that I'm at large
But just the other day I found an unprotected barge
I snuck up right behind them and they were none the wiser,
I rammed their ship and sank it and I stole their fertilizer!
A bridge outside of Moosejaw spans a mighty river
Farmers cross i

Date Stamp Lyrics
This heart's up for sale Yeah, this heart's on the stand Mix and match and melt in my mouth Nothing ever goes quite as planned You fly north and I'll sail south So redevelop product Redesign this package Still refuse to rea

n so much fear their stomachs are a-quiver
Cause they know that TRACTOR JACK is hiding in the bay
I'll jump the bridge and knock them cold and sail off with their hay!

chorus

Well, Mountie Bob he chased me, he was always at my throat
He'd follow on the shoreline cause he didn't own a boat
But the cutbacks were a-coming and the Mountie lost his job
And now he's sailing with us, and we call him Salty Bob!
A swingin' sword, a skull and bones and pleasant company
I never pay my income tax and screw the GST (SCREW IT)

Heat Lyrics
Let me lay waste with gentle persuasion Let me lay down To sweat in the heat On the back of beyond we laugh at all reason And in the light of it all There's no need to retreat And the heat comes down And the heat comes down And hand in hand We melt in the heat

'm the terror of the seas
If you wanna reach the co-op, boy, you gotta get by me!

chorus

Well, Pirate life's appealing but you just don't find it here,
I've heard that in Alberta there's a band of buccaneers
They roam the Athabaska and sail to Fort McKay
And you're gonna loose your stetson if you have to pass their way!
Well, winter is a-comin' and a chill is in the breeze
My Pirate days are over once the river starts to freeze
I'll be back in springtime but now I have to go
I hear there's lots of plundering down in New Mexico!
