The difference between Canadians and Americans
Is that Canadians know that there's a difference
Everywhere you look, it's so evident
We're similar, but we're so different

They have bluegrass
- We have BC bud
They had a civil war
- We have Question Period

They have Mississippi
- It's Mississauga here
They have Budweiser
- But we have beer

They sell things by the pound
- We sell them by the gram
They have American Airlines
- We have the planes of Abraham

Your border guards are scary
- But ours don't make you nervous
They have a petrified forest
- We have the civil service

They have Elvis the king
- We have Liz, the queen
They have the sonic boom
- We have Celine

They have Malcolm X
- We have Molson X here instead
They have Monica Lewinsky
- We have Moosehead

They have Death Valley, where you wouldn't last a day
We have the Don Valley Parkway
They have the missile shield
- We have our Canadian shield too
During black fly season, nothing can get through

The difference between Canadians and Americans
Is that Canadians know that there's a difference
Everywhere you look it's so evident
We're similar
But we're so different
