Ok, It's Flat
OK, IT’S FLAT
To say Saskatchewan is flat
Is like saying a woman is fat :
A superficial judgement
Which denies all her other allurement.
Oh, what wonders are in glorious Sask?
I hear everyone breathlessly ask.
Only the lake with the biggest inland
Freshwater delta in all the world’s land.
And two of the five biggest all-Canadian lakes -
Athabasca and Reindeer - land sakes!
And - what is our greatest glory?
Sask is the world’s biggest political territory
Whose boundaries are geometric lines all.
We certainly can’t be considered small.
Ok, I hear you say, but it’s still flat. . .
Well, it’s not to us prairie boys, and that’s that!
