|
(yardsticks are pathetic) |
|
12 inches per foot, |
|
2 pints per quart, |
|
why don't we make it easy? |
|
the english system of measurement MUST be laid to history, |
|
we can use units of 10 and convert with ease, |
|
just like all the other countries, |
|
i am in command yes i am taking a stand, |
|
from this disease we must be free! (Good God!) |
|
CHORUS |
|
You are drunk with your tradition that has no validity, |
|
while i'm intoxicated with smarts and metrics, |
|
come drink a dekaliter with me. |
|
we want metrics, we want them now! we know we can win! |
|
i weigh 170 lbs. that's 90 kilograms, |
|
see metrics can even make me thin |
|
(yardsticks are pathetic) |
|
all cool things are in metrics, |
|
for example here's just one, |
|
i got my "nine" well that's nine millimeters, |
|
sounds cooler then my .3 something inches gun! |
|
the powerful, if non-existent "they" will call me communist, |
|
they'll call me scum, but it's worth it, |
|
canadians will think we're smart or at least not as dumb, |
|
CHORUS |
|
the revolution's here, |
|
we must overcome at last, |
|
as we symbolically stick their 12 inch foot up their antiquate ass... guitar! |
|
CHORUS |
