Up in Downsview where the skies are grey I can take my Mazda down the old parkway >From what they tell me I just make a right To the place that's jumping every day and night. Well, I'm glad to say I'm on my way To where ducks and jugglers and children play I may be stuck in traffic, but I'm on the hunt Gonna find my harbour down at Harbourfront. Pleasure bound I started walking around It took me half an hour to find some gra**y ground I spread my blanket, but I got no sun Just the shadow of the condominium Well, I'm sad to say they blocked the way They took my view and my naivete I saw lots of condos, but to be blunt I didn't see no harbour down at Harbourfront. Hey! Is there no Metro plan? There's no need for a cultural home So tell me what do you say alderman? Build a casino with lots of chrome. Take 10 story, 20 story, 30 story Lunch! There's no need for a cultural home We're gonna solve that intangible budget crunch!
Pave the harbour from the shore to the 'Dome. I took my problem to so many doors To the Feds, Queen's Park, and councillors They sent me on to a businessman Who said "son, listen up, I understand" "You see, I'm glad to say you'll get your way Your Authorsfest and your Children's Day That artsy stuff, spring, summer, fall On parking level three of HarbourMall!" Say, see where the art used to be? Back to business at HarbourMall Skydome's a runt next to King Harbourfront Give the business to HarbourMall. So now I see the situation's clear We'll have HarbourFun every day of the year Under HarbourMall's roof I'll get my sun With the tanning salon and Mr. Eggleton. Well, I'm glad to say we got our way The Authorsfest and the Children's Day All that artsy stuff, spring, summer, fall On parking level three of HarbourMall... ...HarbourMall fun in the city!
