Urban Shocker

Second verse:
I went down to the Henry Moore ...
I went down to the Henry Moore ...

Sunday Morning After
I woke up with a killer hangover
Hope it was worth all this pain
(I'd do it all over again)
By the time the party was over
Tequila was my claim to fame
(I couldn't remember my name)
I was dancing with Jake when I last saw my keys
That was my first mistake
'Cause, what happened to me?
I look down at my arm, baby
And something's lookin' back at me
And I cannot believe it
CHORUS:
Oh my God!-- I woke up with a snake tattoo
Oh my God!-- and I think that my tongue's pierced, too
Oh my God!-- Oh my God!
It's the Sunday morning after
And baby, who the hell are you?
I remember yelling, "Hey, DJ!"
"Jack the volume, I love this song!"
(And then it all gets hazy)
And my clothes are selling on e-bay
And I don't know what I'm gonna put on
(Where were my friends to save me?)
I blacked out I came to
And it's all such a blur
Had a blast, I assume
But I'm really not sure
Exactly where am I now, baby?
Wake up and tell me your name
'Cause this is insane
CHORUS
Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God!
My alter ego took over and took me on a fantasy ride
You can take me anywhere twice
But the second time will be to apologize
CHORUS x 2
Where am I...?, What am I...?, Who am I...?, How am I...?,
How did I...?...

Funeral by Arcade Fire is essential listening for anyone.
In my opinion, it's "New Orleans is Sinking", but that is also about an American disaster.
I just have to throw in that while good, Arcade Fire are hardly a Canadian band. The core members are from Texas, and have lived in Canada a very short time.
According to Wikipedia, of the six core members two of them are from Texas (and are brothers) and four are from Canada. It certainly isn't an American band, that's for sure.
While Canadians may be present in larger numbers, the band was formed in the US, and it is my understanding that the Texans (particularly Win Butler) have larger songwriting responsibilities than the other members. Quality and quantity. I'm not sure they're either Canadian or US, I don't think they're either, necessarily, but I don't think they can be called "Canadian". If they were terrible a lot more people would say they're from the US, i'm willing to bet.
