Harbourmall Lyrics - Moxy Fruvous

Up in Downsview where the skies are grey 

I can take my Mazda down the old parkway 

>From what they tell me I just make a right 

To the place that's jumping every day and night. 

Well, I'm glad to say I'm on my way 

To where ducks and jugglers and children play 

I may be stuck in traffic, but I'm on the hunt 

Gonna find my harbour down at Harbourfront. 

Pleasure bound I started walking around 

It took me half an hour to find some grassy ground 

I spread my blanket, but I got no sun 

Just the shadow of the condominium 

Well, I'm sad to say they blocked the way 

They took my view and my naivete 

I saw lots of condos, but to be blunt 

I didn't see no harbour down at Harbourfront. 

Hey! Is there no Metro plan? 

There's no need for a cultural home 

So tell me what do you say alderman? 

Build a casino with lots of chrome. 

Take 10 story, 20 story, 30 story Lunch! 

There's no need for a cultural home 

We're gonna solve that intangible budget crunch! 

Pave the harbour from the shore to the 'Dome. 

I took my problem to so many doors 

To the Feds, Queen's Park, and councillors 

They sent me on to a businessman 

Who said "son, listen up, I understand" 

"You see, I'm glad to say you'll get your way 

Your Authorsfest and your Children's Day 

That artsy stuff, spring, summer, fall 

On parking level three of HarbourMall!" 

Say, see where the art used to be? 

Back to business at HarbourMall 

Skydome's a runt next to King Harbourfront 

Give the business to HarbourMall. 

So now I see the situation's clear 

We'll have HarbourFun every day of the year 

Under HarbourMall's roof I'll get my sun 

With the tanning salon and Mr. Eggleton. 

Well, I'm glad to say we got our way 

The Authorsfest and the Children's Day 

All that artsy stuff, spring, summer, fall 

On parking level three of HarbourMall... 

...HarbourMall fun in the city!
