Baz

Of his Hometown of Halifax in Nova Scotia he has good stories to tell
But in his guest house in Semaphore he is doing financially well
Today in Nova Scotia the weather temperature below minus fifteen degrees
And in Semaphore a high of thirty six of only a slight breeze

Going by what he says it looks like in South Australia Baz will grow old
Nova Scotia for him to live in is far too cold
He may never even visit there again
By the southern Pacific he may remain

I have found my own Earthly Utopia he does say
And where the weather temperature never drops to near zero i am happy to stay
He will not be going back to Halifax in the Spring
When the tanagers in the green Park-lands do sing

And light pale green leaves are on the maple trees
And the warmth of May in the freshening breeze
And though good memories of what was in him does remain
He may never see Nova Scotia again.
