Newly weds, nearly deads

Seas of green skies of lead

Constant rain on my head

Stately homes for the rich

Bowling green, cricket pitch

Victoria, what a bitch

Victoria

I was born in a place

Where the cops spray their mace

On the kids at the gigs

And they act just like pigs

Beat 'em up, knock 'em down

Victoria what a town

Victoria

Land of hope and gloria

Stuck in old victoria

Guaranteed to bore ya

Sentenced to victoria

Gordon head to james bay

Yuppies flock to this place

Victoria, what a waste

From Oak Bay to the Gorge

All the geeks at the forge

Victoria, what a bore

Victoria

Given that Victoria gave the world both NoMeansNo and the DayGlo Abortions, it can't be *that* horrid of a place... But I've never been further north than Redding, so who knows.

Here's something I'll bet you haven't heard before.Once upon a time there was a band called nomeansno. Their guitarist got involved in a side project called The Hanson Brothers. At some point, they decided to cover the Kinks' Victoria.This is especially funny given that the band were formed in Victoria, BC and the rewritten lyrics make fun of that city.

Chyba wolę tę wersję, choć The Kinks grali też ładnie. The Hanson Brothers - Victoria [The Kinks cover] [NoMeansNo]
