Here are the lyrics as requested...PS. I think I'm playing this live at homecoming next weekend for anyone who wants to know.

Hour outside Halifax, next to the train tracks

Wolfville Nova Scotia, we call it Acadia

Irvings big donations, noise regulations

I dont have the patience for drinking violations

LC closes at six, to the vil to pick up chicks

Listen to the dance mix, how else can you get your kicks?

[nickgresh]

Chorus We didnt start the fire, Cause its been burnin since we started learnin' yeah Tuition is getting higher Something Ogilvy should plainly see Verse 2 BillyBobs Greco, Louie's Pizza or Joes Does anyone really care where you get your donair Pita Boys, Subway, Main Squeeze for a change Pizza Hut, Mini Mart, Jacked up prices gone too far If you wanna relax, thursday night at the axe Then your going to wind up, sober in a line-up

[nickgresh]

Verse 3

Check my email real quick, something from Pam Dimock

check my email again, its Ruth Pertakanyn

Microsoft Windows, wont Open, wont close

Word Powerpoint Excel, IBM can go to Hell

Napster Mp3s, No more tapes, no CDs

Talk to me on ICQ, I don't even know you

[nickgresh]

Verse 4

Cheatin Cup, Pub Crawls, nomore hockey brawls

Best Party I ever seen, spontaneous gathering

Chipman house, all male, some get D's others fail

Tully Dennis Cutten, call someone to let you in

Toonie Tins,Happy Hour,Chase,Barracks,Sem, Tower

Eaton house is Co-ed, what else has to be said

[nickgresh]

Verse 5

Muddys, Nowlans Canteen, Goalers in the Valley

Cutting down old trees, Raising the tuition fees

Crazy fan insanity, Home team Loyalty, someone tell ogilvy, Rugby should be varsity

Rankings in Macleans, 10 years still the same

#2 to Mt A, What else do I have to say!

Hope this brings back some good memories for everyone - it does for me every time I play it.

Cheers

Nick
