Don't own it and you know it!

Those Canaan Days
Jakoba: Do you remember the good shops in Canaan?
The sales were endlessly gold!
The racks were a patchwork of colour,
The shops were never too cold!
We strolled down the high street together,
And everything 'round us was fine,
Now the stores are dead and bare,
No joie de vivre anywhere,
Et mantenan, we sing a bitter rhyme...
Sis: Those Canaan Days,
We used to know,
Where have they gone,
Where did they go?
Et bien, raise your perfectly-in-fashion berets,
To those Canaan days
Dani: Do you remember those raves we got hammered*
The best ones that Canaan received,
Those extravagant, elegant dresses,
The most stylish the Bible has seen,
It's funny,
But since we've lost Josie,
We've gone to the other extreme...
Izzy: No-one comes to dinner now!
(pause)
Sis: You'd only eat them anyhow! (Izzy looks upset)
We even find we're missing Josie's dreams
Those Canaan Days
We used to know,
Where have they gone?
Where did they go?
Et bien, raise your perfectly-in-fashion berets,
To those Canaan days...
(dance between Natalie and Random Bald Dancer) (instrumental while this is happening)
Jackie: It's funny, but since we've lost Josie,
We've gone to the other extreme
Dani: Perhaps we all misjudged her fad**
Perhaps she wasn't quite that bad
Sis: And how we miss her entertaining dreams!
Those Canaan Days
We used to know,
Where have they gone?
Where did they go?
Et bien, raise your perfectly-in-fashion berets,
To -
Those Canaan Days.
