| Summary: | Song attacking the "marvelous plan" of Parzival Copes to save Newfoundland by sending half the population to Mainland Canada. The narrator, given the choice, would rather stay poor at home than "be boxed off like codfish to some foreign land". If he sees Parzival he'll shoot him - and when the narrator reaches heaven, having shot Parzival - "Satan's brother" - will earn his board. |
