Ontario lyrics

When I told you what you wanted to know

I said, "Take me to Ontario"

And when I showed you what you wanted to see,

You said, "The flower that you planted in me had gone dry, yeah."

Big birds flyin' overhead, who gives a shit?

Big birds flyin' overhead, who gives a shit?

When I showed you what I wanted to build,

And all the enemies would never be killed

There'll be a saint living under the stairs

So we'll be free from our material cares

Black paint on the walls in summer, it's cool

Yeah, it's cool

Black paint on the walls in summer, it's cool

Yeah, it's cool

[Refrain]

I wanna go, I wanna go

To Ontario

I wanna go, I wanna go

To Ontario

When I told you what you wanted to know

You said "Take me to Ontario"

And when I asked you, "Why Ontario?"

You said, "It sounds good on the radio."

Go!

[Refrain]

Black birds flyin' overhead,

Waitin' for somebody to die

Black birds flyin' overhead

Waitin' for somebody to die
