lyrics

Sad day when Clifford died
He and they had been quarantined
We viewed his body through a window
viewed his body through a window

Uncle George sat me on his knee and asked
Clyde, tell me, do you like your catechism?
Clyde, tell me, do you like your catechism?
We viewed his body through a window,
viewed his body through a window.

One thing I recall about breakfast
they ate their oatmeal thick with honey.
At home, we ate it thin with canned milk,
thin as heirloom silk, thin, thin, thin
Thin, thin, thin.

Boy those Lampen cousins, they really had it made
Sitting bright on their new bicycles. Remember?

Later that night at the party
I was the one with the can on my head.
I was the one with the can on my head.

There on 222 Otawa Avenue,
we almost got hurt so many times.
We took the risk, we took the risk,
we took the risk before the risk took us.

We had life for breakfast and death for dinner
We were always so full, no we were never full.
We took the risk, we took the risk,
we took the risk before the risk took us.

We viewed our bodies through a window
We were the ones with the cans on our heads
Thin, thin, thin, thin.

We were the ones with the cans on our heads,
we were the ones with the cans on our heads.
