Winnipeg Lyrics by Martin Tielli

Operation Infinite Joy

0

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 death
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 death
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 fuck 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
