Rupert Common - Stanley Park

Welcome to Down-town Vancouver for the
100 year celebration of
Stanley Park
Over a century ago
This pristine piece of wilderness
Was set aside for
All the city slickers to enjoy...

Why's it called Stanley Park?
Who the fuck is Stanley?
What's the original name, oh, somebody tell me!

Why's it called Vancouver? Once the home of the Grizzlies
He didn't find this place in the 19th Century, No

It's been here since time, Immemorial
Same with the people of the land
Don't you know how the story goes?

Why they called Canada Geese?
They were here before then
That's why I call them Turtle Island Geese
When they're flying in their formation
And this is not a country, it's a corporation
No conspiracy theory, it's a definition

Man-made dates, man-made lakes
Man-made love man-made hate
Man makes war, man makes cake
Don't just strand their - Emancipate

Man-made dates, man-made lakes
Man-made love man-made hate
Man makes war, man makes cake
Don't just strand their - Emancipate

Why's it called Stanley Park?
Who the fuck is Stanley?
What's the original name, oh, somebody tell me!

Why's it called Vancouver? Once the home of the Grizzlies
He didn't find this place in the 19th Century, No
It's been here since time, Immemorial
Same with the people of the land

With the people of the land
With the people of the land
Immemorial, Imme, Immemorial

With the people of the land
With the people of the land
Immemorial, Imme, Immemorial

With the people of the land
With the people of the land
Immemorial, Imme, Immemorial

With the people of the land
With the people of the land
With the people of the land
With the people of the land

Immemorial, Imme, Immemorial
Immemorial, Imme, Immemorial

With the people of the land
With the people of the land
With the people of the land
With the people of the land

Immemorial, Imme, Immemorial
Immemorial, Imme, Immemorial
