Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I went out on the street today

The Canadian dream was as far away as it's ever been, as it's ever been

I went out on the street today

The Canadian dream was as far away as it's ever been, as it's ever been

[Verse 2]

S-O-C-I-A-L-I-S-M is here to stay

S-O-C-I-A-L-I-S-M is the only way, hey

[Verse 3]

Frozen land and frozen minds

Frozen hands and frozen time

Frozen land and frozen minds

Frozen hands and frozen time

[Verse 4]

'Cause everything moves real slow when it's forty below

Everything moves real slow when it's forty below

Everything moves real slow when it's forty below

Yeah, everything moves real slow when it's forty below

When it's forty below

[Verse 5]

S-O-C-I-A-L-I-S-M is here to stay

S-O-C-I-A-L-I-S-M is the only way, hey

[Verse 6]

'Cause everything moves real slow when it's forty below

Everything moves real slow when it's forty below

Yeah, everything moves real slow when it's forty below

Everything moves real slow when it's forty below

When it's forty below

[Verse 7]

I went out on the street today

The Canadian dream was so far away

I went out on the street today

The Canadian dream was so far away

[Verse 8]

S-O-C-I-A-L-I-S-M is here to stay

S-O-C-I-A-L-I-S-M is the only way, hey
