Freaky Stuff
Back when I moved from Montreal to Toronto
Invited some old friends for a visit
They were leaving Montreal early in the morning
Their arrival, I sure didn't want to miss it
Left work at three travelling north to the highway
As I entered the onramp I heard
This annoying, obnoxious blowing of a horn
Who was this damn joker, this nerd
Surely could have knocked me over with a feather
For there among the gas fumes and chrome
Were my dear old friends, laughing and shouting
They let me in and followed me home
Timing had to be totally bang on the money
The freakiest of happenings, bar none
Some things in life are totally mind bending
And this most assuredly was one
Though many long years have since past and gone
Each time I relate this tale
Sends chills up and down this old spine of mine
And my bodily functions set sail
