Well, y'know, it's about freedom, right? :)

I want to be ten years old and naked all summer

I want to sing at my cousin’s wedding
    sober, and see the smiles

I want to sit up till I fall asleep every night

I want to walk barefoot down city streets
    like any wise animal

I want to buy a car some colour that causes accidents

I want to see you even when he’s around

I want to eat three sundaes and not worry about it

I want to still be Canadian when the last star falls
    off that tired patch of blue.
