The 1967 International and Universal Exposition or Expo 67, as it was commonly known, was the general exhibition, Category One World's Fair held in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, from April 27 to October 29, 1967. It is considered to be the most successful World's Fair of the 20th century, with the most attendees to that date and 62 nations participating. It also set the single-day attendance record for a world's fair, with 569,000 visitors on its third day.
Expo 67 was Canada's main celebration during its centennial year. The fair was originally intended to be held in Moscow, to help the Soviet Union celebrate the Russian Revolution's 50th anniversary; however, for various reasons, the Soviets decided to cancel, and Canada was awarded it in late 1962.
The project was not originally overwhelmingly supported in Canada. It took the determination of Montreal's mayor, Jean Drapeau, and a new team of managers to guide it past political, physical and temporal hurdles. Defying a computer analysis that said it could not be done, the fair opened on time.
Donald Lautrec is a Canadian musician.
In 1957, he created, with one of his friends, a pair of acrobats on a trampoline, Don and Lee, which occurs in Canada and the United States. Subsequently, he meets show business occupying the lighting function, master of ceremonies in several Montreal cabarets and for a short period of time, the singer's bodyguard Michel Louvain. Then he met Yvan Dufresne, the impresario who discovered Louvain, and asks him to help launch his singing career.
Dufresne accepts and begins to commit to the Hotel Central Saint-Martin in Laval in 1961. The same year he made recording music a first 45-laps, Nobody in the World.
In recent years, Donald Lautrec became one of pop music stars in Quebec. In 1964, it popularized the ska, a dance inspired by Jamaican ska withItandManon,just dancing ska. In 1965 and 1966, it ensures its success withYou're talking nonsense,ActionandDeep in my campaign,he plays in the movie ' 'No holiday for idols.

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
Welcome to radio station EXP.
Tonight we are featuring an interview
with a very peculiar looking gentleman
who goes by the name of Mr. Paul
Corusoe on the dodgy subject of are
there or are there not flying saucers
or UFOs? Please Mr. Corusoe, please
could you give us your regarded
opinion on this nonsense about
spaceships and even space people?
Thank you As you well know
you just can't believe everything you
see and hear, can you? Now, if you'll
excuse me, I must be on my way.
Bu...but,but...gulb...I,I,don't belive it
We went to the park the other day
But the park was closed, we walked away
We brought many things to eat
Fruits and soda, even meat
But we have to wait
We were told the park was beautiful
We were told the park was so nice
Someday we'll go back again
We'll have a party, please bring your friends
We'll have lots of things to eat
Fruits and soda, even meat

Sometimes i think this cycle never ends
We slide from top to bottom and we turn and climb again
And it seems by the time that i have figured what it's worth
The squeaking of our skin against the steel has gotten worse.
But if i move my place in line i'll lose.
And i have waited, the anticipation's got me glued.
I am waiting for something to go wrong.
I am waiting for familiar resolve.
Sometimes it seems that i don't have the skills to recollect
The twists and turns of plots that turned us from lovers to friends
I'm thinking i should take that volume back up off the shelf
And crack it's weary spine and read to help remind myself
But if i move my place in line i'll lose.
And I have waited, the anticipation's got me glued.
I am waiting for something to wrong
I am waiting for familiar resolve
I am waiting for another repeat
Another diet fed by crippling defeat
And i am waiting for that sense of relief
I am waiting for you to flee the scene
As if you held in your hand the smoking gun
And on the floor lay the one you said you loved.
And it's strange
They are basically the same
So i don't ask names anymore.
Sometimes i think this cycle never ends
We slide from top to bottom and we turn and climb again
And it seems by the time that i have figured what it's worth
The squeaking of our skin against the steel has gotten worse.
Get back you fools, I'm gonna take this one alive
You won't catch me, I have the will to survive
You threat, take care
Watch out, Bomb scare
No sleep tonight, You got to time it right
Hot sweat like rain, is driving into my eyes
You laugh at me, There's no way you can survive
Red, Black or white, I've got to time it right
Not much time, take it slow, Easy now, Don't let go
Tweezers pull, Keep your cool
The vultures are in the sky tonight,
For the angry youth are on the streets to fight,
In packs they prowl like a lions pride,
As violence sweeps the nation like an endless tide.
Chaos on the streets as the sirens wail,
This system of corruption has finally failed,
Shops are being looted, see the buildings burn
'Cos judgement day is here, now where you gonna turn?
Chorus
And you don't know what to say,
And you don't know what to do,
We told you this would happen,
But you didn't have a clue,
You just sat there on your arse,
You didn't see it all went wrong,
And now this country's burning,
It#s an unexploded bomb!
People look around but no help arrives,
On the streets of destruction the strong survives,
No false prophet is gonna save your wife,
you'll feel the cold steel take your life.
When the war is over and the battle's won,
When the banks and government are all gone,
And the wealth is shared amongst the common men,
Way to go
We'll live by the ocean
Way to go
You'll live there with me
Half an hour
Of pure devotion
Can really fuck
With a man's sanity
Its time to wake up and go for sure
Two down in the time it took to call
For cold yakisoba
More brings the balance that I adore
Time time going going gone
Not like it's over
Way to go
Who'd believe it
Look at us now
Now it's the best
Another hour
Of your devotion
Stick around
Now I'm a mess
Its time to wake up and go for sure
Two down in the time it took to call
For cold yakisoba
More brings the balance that I adore
Time time going going gone
Not like it's over
Over you
Over nothing
Over you
Over nothing
Way to go
We'll live by the ocean
Way to go
You'll live there with me
Half an hour
Of pure devotion
Can really fuck
With a man's sanity
