In Canada Rocks!, the musical I'm forced to watch three times a week, there's a lamentable song (written by one of the cast members) called the Toronto Rap. Picture an old grey dude rapping this out:
We're goin' to Toranna, uh-huh/ The city that works/ Big Smoke, big money/ And all the perks.
It goes on from there and gets exponentially worse as it goes.
The same guy also wrote a song entitled "We Are Canadian" which features this brilliant and innovative rhyme scheme:
Sea to sea to sea/ Show me what you see.
These two songs are terrible, but the rest of the show is really good. Honest.
