Why Ignore the Truth?

[Intro]
Hey Mom, hey Dad, I’m just wondering why, 
You’re leaning toward them when the stakes are so high. 
I’m trying to get it, so help me, I plead, 
Why back a party with this kind of deed?

[Verse 1]
Phoenix cost billions, paychecks still fail, 
ArriveCAN’s a fortune, but details are frail. 
Debt’s through the roof, our futures on hold, 
Why trust the ones who’ve left us so cold? 
I’m just a kid, still learning your ways, 
But their waste of our money’s got me in a daze. 
Why give your vote to a crew that’s so slack? 
Teach me the reason—help me stay on track.

[Chorus]
Why, oh why, do you think they’re the best? 
With borders wide open, drugs haunt our unrest. 
Defence spending’s a whisper, trade’s stuck in the mud, 
U.S. ties are fraying, no trust in our blood. 
Why, oh why, would you give them your heart? 
When scandals pile high and tear us apart? 
I’m just wondering, help me see clear, 
Why choose the ones who’ve brought us to here?

[Verse 2] 
Electoral reform? They said it was true, 
But dropped it like nothing—what’s that say to you? 
Indigenous water, still dirty, delayed, 
Communities suffer while promises fade. 
I’m curious, really, why this feels okay, 
When ethics are shaky, like that Aga Khan stay. 
Why lift up a party that’s let trust erode? 
Show me the logic in this heavy load.

[Verse 3] 
Our border’s a problem, fentanyl flows free, 
Defence is a ghost, allies don’t trust what they see. 
Trade’s all one-sided, no plan to expand, 
U.S. relations slip right through their hands. 
I know you’re nervous, the world’s kinda rough, 
But why’s their record something you trust? 
I’m asking sincere, just trying to learn, 
Why back a party that’s caused so much churn?

[Bridge] 
You’ve always been wise, so I’m puzzled, it’s true, 
Why their failures don’t bother you, too. 
SNC’s pressure, blackface’s shame, 
Their record’s a fire, but you’re fanning the flame. 
This crisis with Trump, it’s their fault, can’t you see? 
Weak borders, no defence, and on trade, a next-up export just might be ME. 
I’m trying to see through your eyes, I swear, 
But why choose a path that’s just leading nowhere?

[Chorus] 
Why, oh why, do you think they’re the best? 
With borders wide open, drugs haunt our unrest. 
Defence spending’s a whisper, trade’s stuck in the mud, 
U.S. ties are fraying, no trust in our blood. 
Why, oh why, would you give them your heart? 
When scandals pile high and tear us apart? 
I’m just wondering, help me see clear, 
Why choose the ones who’ve brought us to here?

[Outro]
Thanks for the talk, I’m starting to see, 
Your fear’s not my future, it’s their legacy. 
Why lift them up when they’ve let us all down? 
Your vote’s their excuse to keep burning this town.

(Spoken)

Oh, one last thing: You’re screwing us into a big bind... because you're bigly, bigly blind.
