lirik lagu rheostatics – northern wish
dave bidini and janet mor-ssutti
wake up, raise the curtains
from your deep provincial eyes.
speak up, for i am certain
that it’s no disguise.
’cause soldiers stopping traffic
couldn’t keep these wheels at bay;
their guns smoked, then the sun broke,
and we hauled away.
and mothers of the country take two flags and make a sail.
we’ll sail the big dominion.
this song is falling…
and did you get my message
on the people’s radio?
i wrote it in alberta
across the prairie spine.
and i’d rather jump the borders
that trail from east to west
and get the booking agent
to find another band.
i built my rocket in a shed.
i’m going to launch it at the sun.
i’m going to launch it from my pad.
oh, could i get this?
it’s my northern wish.
meanwhile in the forest
in a parliament of trees,
the ink will crack and dry all up,
but the comp-ss will swing anyways.
and we don’t need mathematics
and we don’t need submarines
to tell how far that the land does go…
till it hits the sh-r-.
wake up, raise the curtains
from your deep provincial eyes.
speak out, for i am certain
this song is over.
(land ho!)
