I'm here, I'm here, it's boogie time, and I got me dancin shoes on! A little Canadian eh, from Vancouver, B.C. Boogie woogie, giggle puss, yup that's me! I got my little flag, and some sparklers too, Want to boogie to our freedom with you! Let's sing out to our country loud and proud, You and me Melissa will stand out in the crowd, 'Cause we've got "Passions Power" inside our soul, Go girl, shake your bootie, shimmy up that flag pole! Okay, okay, so it's forced! Just kidding! Perfectly done Melissa, and Happy Canada Day! If I have made you smile today, then I have done my job! ~* Mysteria *~ |
