Fuck Don Cherry!  There, I said it.  
F5               F5           C5               G5
How long are we gonna let it be okay to turn hockey skates into 
F5                         A5  G5
recruitment gates for the ar__my?  
C5                G5
"Beautiful boys" on the screen, 
F5                     F5                 C5                   G5
white faces shaved so smooth and clean - noble hearts in the noble arts of 
F5           A5  G5
war and occupa__tion.  

                 F5             G5               C5    C5      A5 
There's nothing about pucks in nets, skates on ice, sticks on skin that 
G5          F5                  G5              C5       C5 
says "it's okay if some brown person loses a limb."  
                 F5           G5           C5       C5   A5
There's nothing about Ron MacLean, the CBC, hits from behind that 
G5         F5                     G5                   C5        G5 (hold)
say "it's alright to bomb a few foreigners from the sky."

Fuck the anthems that celebrate the

ass we kick on a foreign stage - the only "Leaf" I see is losing 6-3 and that's 
F5                  A5  G5
fine with me, oh I know... 
           C5                    G5
it seems a harmless thing as we stand and sing, but in

Afghanada it's another thing.  There's no peace to keep when you ride up in a jeep and you 
F5                          A5   G5
blow the bleep out of some children.
