To the tune of New Orleans is sinking

"Halifax Is Sinking"

All right

Donair Sauce on the street, sweet and complete
Under skies all smoky blue green
I can't forsake a Freak Lunchbox shake
So we cleared the sidewalk clean

My memory is muddy, what's this river that I'm in?
Halifax is sinking, man, and I don't want to swim

Mayor Mike, what's wrong? What's going on?
You can't come to the MicMac for a meal
He said, Hey, Dartmouth, you're North, shut your big mouth
You gotta do what you feel is real

Ain't got no empty growlers, ain't got no souvenirs
My baby she don't know me when I'm drinking all these beers

Pale as a light bulb hanging on a wire
NS power raising rates just to stoke the fire
Picking out the highlights of the scenery
Saw a little cloud that looked a little like me

I had my feet in the sewage, as the Harbour Hopper sank
Looked to Theodore up above and said, Hey, man, thanks

Sometimes I eat so much BBQ I'm busting at the seams
She said, Fat Apollo, baby, I know exactly what you mean
She said, she said, I swear to god she said

My memory is muddy, what's this river that I'm in?
Halifax is sinking, man, and I don't want to swim
