Each and evrey country has a history. History can be on going. Repeated all to often. Our countries are often have a connection in history,that tends to interconnect. In the 1930's ,the U S government had a war game about war with the UK,invading Canada.
Have a history of being ,
Anti war , much to the ,
Governments disquiet ,
Beginning with the invaisan ,
Of Canada in 1812 ,
The American people were agin it ,
Were not for expansion ,
Quite happy with what they had ,
The government being a greedy lot ,
Wonted more and yet more ,
The American peoples took to the streets ,
Creating quite a to do upon the streets ,
The government was in stew , that were hotting up ,
The government were a tottering , and could of fallen ,
In 1815 , the red coats captured the Whitehouse ,
Those in residents at the time the red coats came a calling ,
Were having diner , so had to flee rather sharpish as you can imagine ,
Some I dear say were court we're their pants down below their knees ,
The red coats saw the diner upon the table , and thought , '' it's still hot! ''
''Cant let all that good grub goo ter waist! '' , and got stuck in to what lay before
Them ,
Being lads from Lancashire they were fair clemmd ,
After satisfying their thirst on President Madison port and brandy ,
After a good belch by all of the 20th of foot sat at the Presidents dinning table ,
It were time to be back to the business that had them a calling ,
They set light to the house a blaze! ,
Oh what a to do it were!
After , house painters painted over the evidence ,
Painted it white , and white ever since it has remained!
The British hot footed it back in to Canada , the job dun!
Canada , remains free!
