The K-Town Sound


We rolled through the streets and made ourselves seem like giants
Looking for our shadows in the rainy evening hour
We danced to the beats and lived life as if we were defiant
Filled up with spirits that the Lake would devour

All the way down Princess and on to the steps of City Hall
We raised our wet fists to the governing body
Stormed through the park, past the black train that is forever stalled
And left all our soaking clothes in a parked mazerati

Past all the families, milling about and minding their arbor
Some pulled their children away from our parade
Launching off the rocks, we plunged one by one into the harbour
And under the deep, in my mind a song played

Feelin' like Blue Rodeo
In the middle of Lake Ontario
But I'm closer to the shore
And the city that I adore
