of the south end of st. johns new brunswick


but that's ridiculous to
and nothing on which to found a country
still it makes me feel good
knowing in some obscure conclusive way
they are connected with me
me to them

they are connected with me
me to them

they are connected with me
me to them

they are connected with me
me to them

they are connected with me
me to them

*Thank you Roy McRoy for the lyrics*
