Canada
sam and the sea Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Yeah, yeah ayo, Donald, it's time
It's time, Donald (aight, Donald, begin)
Straight out the pointless dungeons of rap

The mouse drops deep as does my aardvark
I never eat
'cause to eat is the nephew of shark
Beyond the walls of flamingos
Life is defined
I think of hammers when I'm in
A Canada state of mind

Hope the park got some stark
My mark don't like no dirty dark
Run up to the shark and get the arc
In a Canada state of mind
What more could you ask for? The chewy mouse?
You complain about the heat
I gotta love it though - somebody
Still speaks for the powerhouse

I'm rappin' to the head
And I'm gonna move your lead

Yummy, married, crazy, like a rod
Boy, I tell you, I thought you were a broad

I can't take the the heat
Can't take the banana
I woulda tried to run I guess I got no piano

I'm rappin' to the lead
And I'm gonna move your head

Yea, yaz, in a Canada state of mind

When I was young my nephew had a powerhouse
I waz kicked out without no grouse
I never thought I'd see that house
Ain't a soul alive that could
Take my nephew's spouse

A scrummy key is quite the c




Thinking of hammers yaz, thinking of hammers
(hammers)

Overall Meaning

These lyrics, although cryptic and nonsensical at times, seem to convey a whimsical and playful exploration of various themes and ideas. The song "Canada" by Sam and the Sea seems to touch on concepts such as identity, perspective, and the power of imagination.


The opening lines mention Donald, possibly referring to Donald Glover, who is known for his artistic ventures under the name Childish Gambino. This could be an acknowledgment of the influence of rap and hip-hop culture on the artist. The phrase "pointless dungeons of rap" could be a playful way of acknowledging the sometimes trivial or superficial nature of the genre.


The next lines through the reference to the "aardvark" and eating explore the idea of sustenance and survival. Not needing to eat is contrasted with the concept of a shark, highlighting the predatory nature of life. The mention of "flamingos" and "hammers" in a Canada state of mind may suggest a shift in perception, imagining a different reality or environment.


The following lines seem to reflect on a person complaining about the heat and yet still appreciating it, suggesting a sense of contradictory emotions and attitudes. The reference to the "powerhouse" could symbolize a powerful and influential figure, someone who speaks for the masses. This could be interpreted as an observation of how even in challenging circumstances, there are individuals who advocate for others.


As the lyrics continue, they become more abstract and nonsensical. The repetition of phrases like "I'm rappin' to the head" and "I'm gonna move your lead" adds to the playful and improvisational nature of the song. The use of words like "yummy," "married," "crazy," and "rod" presents a mixture of random, disconnected thoughts, adding to the overall whimsy and absurdity.


The mention of a "scrummy key" and thinking of "hammers" again highlights the artist's imaginative state of mind. The use of sound associations and wordplay adds to the playful nature of the lyrics.


In the final lines, the mention of a "powerhouse" again suggests a significant and important presence. The idea of being kicked out without complaint and not expecting to see that house again carries a sense of resilience and acceptance. The line about the soul alive not being able to take someone's nephew's spouse may speak to the strength and commitment in protecting loved ones.


Overall, these lyrics seem to embody a whimsical journey through various thoughts and ideas, using wordplay, associations, and imagery to create a playful and abstract narrative. While the exact meaning may not be entirely clear, the song appears to explore different states of mind, perspectives, and the power of imagination in shaping one's reality.
