Enough of This Frigid Weather
Enough of this frigid weather already
It's March for crying out loud
Time for the temps to start moderating methinks
It's not civil and shouldn't be allowed
When the hell is spring supposed to arrive
It's just around which corner, I ask
It's long overdue, it's stressing us guys out
Want to lie on a deck chair and bask
Us Canadian fellows are a hardy bunch
We sometimes don't wear a hat
When temperature dip to minus forty-five
We go out for a stroll, how bout that
Okay, maybe I'm exaggerating a wee bit
Minus twenty is a more like it, ahem
Still frigid enough to freeze the balls off a statue
Of Laurier, our seventh PM
We WILL survive, us guys always do
We're made of some pretty tough stuff
But give me a break, this is way too damn cold
Enough, is enough, is enough!
