[Verse 1]
Shopping for coffins, I shouldn't have told you at all
I text you, you call me, I ignore it, please don't break my fall

[Chorus]
Toronto born, Toronto bred, and one day I'll be Toronto dead
Toronto born, Toronto bred, and one day I'll be Toronto dead

[Verse 2]
A man in a pea coat and a top hat, he stands at his door
He says, "Little lady, so soon? What brings you to my store?"

[Bridge]
I say, "Oak is no good, mahogany is no better
The newspaper said you would be my abettor"
And maybe I've come to the wrong place entirely
Outside the store, you are waiting for my quietly

"You're a coward, you're a punk, not a poet, you're pathetic"
And I know I'm apathetic but I swear I'm apologetic
And I don't know the right words to say how I'm feeling
And I'm sorry, this is no place for me and I'm leaving

[Chorus]
Toronto born, Toronto bred, and one day I'll be Toronto dead
Toronto born, Toronto bred, and one day I'll be Toronto dead
Toronto born, Toronto bred, and one day I'll be Toronto dead
Toronto born, Toronto bred, and one day I'll be Toronto dead
