2004-02-12 | GREAT WHITE

I fell asleep on the escalator

I couldn't come down from my high, and I didn't know why

Didn't feel like finding out, i just drifted off and wandered about

I landed in Toronto on a maple leaf

It was giant and fluffy, gorgeous beyond belief

I had a rubber band attached to my wrist

to remind me of my past discretions, but I forgot about this

I used it as a weapon against a monkey in a tree

Who had ordered his organisms to live all over me

I hit a branch and it began to crack

the leaf fell to the ground and i fell on my back

luckily it was a soft landing, i didn't break a thing

my spirit was sprained, but i continued to sing

nobody was listening, so i believed

so i told my fluffy maple leaf that it was time to leave

i moved on to Quebec, i figured what the heck

when i saw the french army i hit the deck

turned out that it was just a joke

some kind of silly play where all the actors smoke

i moved on to fat Alberta to find me some love

it was hard to see the light with all the fog above

i couldn't find my lady, it was too cold outside

i didn't check my temperature, but it was on the southside

i was sick of it there so i made a deal like Monty Hall

I'd pardon my french in turn for a trip to Montreal

I was exposed right away as a passing fad

I thought about feeling California like Vlad

Instead i went to Vancouver, they said it might be fun

It turned out this one was in Washington

I went to the warped tour and met the love of my life

Music was one of the few things that felt just right

It wasn't the best concert or the most life changing

But i needed a reminder of why i was waiting

Eventually i'd find my future wife, too

I owe it all to music, i couldn't do it without you

Now we make it beautifully together, me and her

now that i've come in from the cold, things aren't such a blur
