I saw a Canadian dollar on the sidewalk today.
Really? What did you do?
I picked it up. I thought there might be something valuable underneath it.

The loony, the loony, the loony is down.
It keeps going down and it won't turn around.
The loony, the loony, it's just a lame duck.
Our poor little dollar, it's not worth a ... buck.

When surveys of all the world's countries are done,
Canada frequently rates number one.
Are we the best country? Well, we'll never know.
There's nowhere else we can afford to go.

We all know the cause of the problem at least.
It lies in the crisis in the Far East.
It's just a part of a secret plan
To make us vacation in Newfoundland.

The loony, the loony, the loony is low.
The Prime Minister says it's no problem, you know.
Well, here's my message to Mr. Chretien.
Thanks a million ... Canadian.
