  3. Hi Crack, just catching up on your blog from here in Canada. This song is and always was a put-on. Both songwriters moved to the U.S. and lived there for years, Burton Cummings to LA and Randy Bachmann to Washington state. There are also other Bachmann songs (from his Bachmann-Turner Overdrive band) that just started out as a guitar riff with some nonsense lyrics that were intended to be temporary, but in some cases the joke/placeholder lyrics remained. Here's an example:
