Have you ever spent a night in the North 'neath the
limbs of the sheltering pines,
When the silence stabs at your pounding heart and the
sounds play tricks with your mind?
...
(A tribute to the courage and determination of Terry Fox)
Run Terry, run! Run Terry, run! –
...
Grand symbol of the northern lakes
Where you've returned once more,
The echoes of your eerie cry
Awake the distant shore.
...
Noble Tecumseh;
Chief of the Shawnee;
Where do your naked bones
Rest `neath the soil?
...
(An 'Education Week' Rap)
Education, education;
There's nothing quite like education!
...
I have a father whom I do not know.
He left our family many years ago.
I often wonder why he went away.
Oh, how my life has changed since that dark day!
...
Witch's brew. Witch's brew.
Add a finger to the wicked stew.
Snakes and snails, lizard's tails,
A young girl's heart and an eye or two.
...
(On Devil's Night)
Quick! Inside the house! Dim the lights!
...
A match that's spent. A failed attempt.
I must find wood that's drier.
A puff of smoke. A flicker weak.
A flash! A flare! A fire!
...
Blood red ran the eastern horizon.
Fire red was the rising sun,
As a few brave British sailors
Took their stations by the guns.
