1. O my father sent me to Victoria And resolved I do the best I can And so I settled down in a quiet college town On the Old Ontario Strand. 2. At first they used me rather roughly As I the fearful gauntlet ran, They tossed me all about, and they turned me inside out On the Old Ontario Strand. Chorus: On the Old Ontario Strand, my friends Where Victoria ever more shall stand, For has she not stood since the time of the flood On the Old Ontario Strand 3. Now don't forget the theologians, For they're the finest in the land, And with a little leaven They will send us all to heaven On the Old Ontario Strand. Chorus 4. Then sing aloud to Alma Mater And keep the scarlet in the van For with our colors high, Vic's name shall never die On the Old Ontario Strand. Chorus

Oh Whatcha doing over there? I’ve seen you staring at me with those eyes, those same old eyes that caught me way back when. Oh I’ve loved and I’ve lost, but now our little game is coming close to an end I’ve all but seen those nights before. It’s been three years since the day, that we had drank all of our sorrows dry to promises that never held a truth. Oh we’ve lost all of our sanity, but tomorrow is another time, a better place that’s meant for me and you. Ring me up another gin goes down! It feels good, to know that everybody hurts and not just me. Say this ain't the worst day of your life, Say this ain't the worst day of your life! because I’ve fallen for your lies all over again. Momma said she had some major plans, but we all know what’s been done and said, what’s done and said is not that much at all Oh there was a time! When trust was such a fragile thing, a fragile thing that ran right through our minds You know I love you but these words won’t come out straight! It feels good. Now it’s the two of us again and I’ll keep it that way.

Beach Dreamin'" by Party in the Fortress! - Lyrics (Written by Emily Bruch/Nicole Chin) Sand in my shoes and you on my mind Sand in my shoes and you on...on my mind Ear to the seashell, feet off the ground Ear to the seashell, but I don't hear...don't hear a sound But the sun it shines, just in time for a little... Beach dreamin' and a lotta sunscreenin' Just a little girl dreamin' of a boy who isn't there A little beach dreamin' and a brittle boy gleamin' Just a little girl screamin' for a boy who doesn't care Can't help but blink as I watch the sunset Can't help but blink as we sink into nothingness Step in the water, I fall into you Step in the water and I fall outta the blue But the gulls they fly, just in time for a little... Beach dreamin' and a lotta sunscreenin' Just a little girl dreamin' of a boy who isn't there A little beach dreamin' and a brittle boy gleamin' Just a little girl screamin' for a boy who doesn't care Pop pop and a sugar sugar shakin' Don't stop and you feel the earth quakin' Tick tock tick tock and I'm at it again Flip-flops, raindrops on the boardwalk Beach thoughts, I'm caught and he won't talk Tick tock tick tock and I'm at it again, yeah Beach dreamin' and a lotta sunscreenin' Just a little girl dreamin' of a boy who isn't there A little beach dreamin' and a brittle boy gleamin' Just a little girl screamin' for a boy who doesn't care A little beach dreamin', a little girl dreamin', a little beach dreamin', a little girl dreamin', a little beach dreamin', a little beach dreamin', a little girl dreamin' of a boy who isn't there.
