When the wind blows 50? below, I'll be out walkin'... In Winnipeg The avenue of too much coffee, Meets the avenue Of the perfect choice That blows without regret. Nothing too big, I've had coleslaw... Nothing too small! ...then I've had COLESLAW. We sat on the steps Of the Albert Hotel This'd be the sweet life This be the sweet d**h Of all of us tonight. I've had some. In Winnipeg The sun comes up Over a prostrate student body. A volunt'ry lobotomy To toast the coming day. Nothing too big, Let's grab a beer on off-sale. Nothing too small; Two bucks a brown-pop. We sat on the steps Of the Albert Hotel This'd be the sweet life This be the sweet d**h
Of all of us tonight. I've had a few. I've had some. On any day. Every day In Winnipeg. ...and so we toast the toastmaster. We went from being The toast of the town. You were the band -so angry we fogot to drink. To being the TOAST of the town. "You posers get the f** off stage!" We were jamming at the Blue Note With the Guess Who. You took me to your zoo Because you saw me smiling. Asleep upon your couch, I got real small When the party turned to cards. I was feeling you- So sweet and pure. On any day. On any day. You asked me to move there But I was too afraid to change. I'd rather do nothing. I'd rather stay the same. I've had some. So sweet and pure.
