I'd sing it, but no one really wants to hear me sing

In honor of the US men’s hockey teams 5-3 victory over Canada yesterday, here’s a slightly revised version of “O, Canada”. If you’re Canadian, you might not appreciate it, but hey, we did win, eh?

No, Canada
Bow down to Uncle Sam
We’ll take the gold
You laid down like a lamb
With frying pans you tended goal
We scored on you at will
From far and wide, Oh Canada
We’re scoring on you still.
God keep your nets
Wide open and emp-ty
O Canada
We scored five goals on thee
O Canada
U.S. with gold you’ll see!

It was said prior to the Games that if Canada failed to win the gold medal, they would be consider failures. Now Canada is the sixth seed after the preliminary round. Then they have to play Germany in a qualification game. If they win that one, they’ll have to go through Russia. The US, meanwhile, a team no one expected much of, won their group AND got a bye into the quarterfinals.

How ‘bout them Canucks, eh??
