In 1812 Madison was mad, he was the president you know. Well he thought he’d tell the british where they ought to go. He thought he’d invade canada, he thought that he was tough.
Instead we went to Washington and burned down all his stuff!
And the white house burned, burned, burned.
And we’re the ones that did it,
It burned, burned, burned.
While the president ran and cried,
It burned, burned, burned.
And things were very historical,
And the Americans ran and cried like a bunch of little babies Wah-wah-wah…
In the war of 1812.
Come back proud Canadians, to before we had tv. No hockey night in Canada, there was no CBC…
