00:00:04.000 I'm just going to play the song.
00:00:17.000 He was only seventeen
00:00:21.000 So sweet and so naive
00:00:27.000 A Canadian kid
00:00:31.000 He wasn't racist at all
00:00:37.000 He wanted to get a job
00:00:42.000 He was told the lines were so long
00:00:48.000 But he went down to the local job fair
00:00:54.000 And he just stared
00:00:58.000 Three hundred Indian men
00:01:06.000 There was three hundred Indian men
00:01:18.000 Small town Ontario
00:01:20.000 There was that diversity
00:01:24.000 When a lot of them are named pen sheets
00:01:30.000 Sorry for asking, was there a racist?
00:01:36.000 But still he did persist
00:01:40.000 Became an intern in an office
00:01:46.000 Country kid

00:02:12.000 Three hundred Indian men
00:02:14.000 Three hundred Indian men
00:02:24.000 Canada, can we face this?
00:02:28.000 Without screaming and shouting racist
00:02:32.000 It's really awkward
00:02:34.000 It's really awkward
00:02:36.000 To admit something's wrong
00:02:38.000 I didn't want to write this song
00:02:42.000 But what happens if I wait too long?
00:02:46.000 Can you imagine?
00:02:50.000 Fifty years on
00:02:52.000 Oh, Canada will be sung

00:03:00.000 In the House of Commons
00:03:04.000 It runs

00:03:18.000 Three hundred Indian men
00:03:20.000 Three hundred Indian men
