Jenny Lee, Montreal was never the same once you were gone
Jenny Lee, you should know the city fell into a sort of boring ruin
So we leave Montreal and so the wild mother we once knew
Jenny Lee, I know that my behavior was probably partly why you turned into a blade of grass and a blade of steel
I was a city wrecker then
I was a city wrecker then
I was a city wrecker then
I was the eye pointed in
That was 2009 or so, I am still a city wrecker now
Now
And now you live back with the anglophones
And I am where my lover needed me to go
And I love her so I step onto the ice
While you possess the common sense to demand paradise
My lover, bless her patient heart
Deep down I know this town's not as bad as I pretend
I am a city wrecker then
I am a city wrecker then
I am a city wrecker then
I am the eye pointed in
It is 2000 and whatever, I am still a city wrecker
But a different kind of wrecker
I am a different kind of wrecker
Singing 'la la la la la's
I step onto the ice
It is 2000 and whatever, I am still a city wrecker now
