about

"Pizza Corner" is a tribute to all those blurry late nights we spent at the iconic downtown Halifax landmark during the 1990s.

lyrics

Hey, look...fresh slices!
Man, I got the munchies!
Yo, I'll have two slices, with donair sauce, to go!

Back in the nineties, in the capital city
Downtown clubs, were groovy and gritty
Every weekend, the mood was giddy
Some felt lucky, some got pity

After last call, we know the drill
Stumble and bumble, up and down the hill
Follow the crusts, for one more thrill
'Cause after midnight, drinks will spill

Pizza Corner, three shops and a wall
Gonna eat some slices, after the pub crawl
Grafton and Blowers, it was a prime location
Near the Dome and Palace, a culinary destination
King of Donair, Sicilian, the European Food Shop
House music blasting, the high jinks nonstop
Tinfoil tumbleweeds, rolled around the streets
Then we'd debate, the night's wins and defeats

I'll take a slice of pepperoni
Make it two!
Make it
Top it
Bake It
Drop it

It's three a.m., we know the routine
Arrive at the corner, scope out the scene
A space to hang out, the place to be seen
Best spot to sample, the local cuisine

Counting our change, as we wait in line
From covers and drinks, that we paid since nine
A pile of napkins, we're ready to dine
Sit on the wall, snow, rain or shine

Get extra sauce, for a super donair
All over your face, we didn't care
Scarf it all down, with zeal and flair
Look a seagull, paper plate in the air

Pizza Corner, three shops and a wall
Gonna eat some slices, after the pub crawl
Grafton and Blowers, it was a prime location
Near the Dome and Palace, a culinary destination
King of Donair, Sicilian, the European Food Shop
House music blasting, the high jinks nonstop
Tinfoil tumbleweeds, rolled around the streets
And we'd debate, the night's wins and defeats

Yo, are you gonna eat the crust
Yeah, it's the best part!
Slice it
Wrap it
Price It
Grab it

On busy nights, we'd sit on the grass
Take in the sights, the crowds would mass
In between bites, and the broken glass
Some boys would fight, a jerk and a jack***

Time goes by, done with jibber jap
Still one slice left, you just gotta grab
Then find a ride home, in a taxicab
Memories we made, the night's been fab

(Gimme some, gimme some, gimme some, extra sauce)
Pizza Corner, three shops and a wall
(Show me some, show me some, show me some, extra sass)
Gonna eat some slices, after the pub crawl
(Slice me up, slice me up, slice me up, a zesty piece)
Grafton and Blowers, it was a prime location
(Serve me up, serve me up, serve me up, some tasty grease)
Near the Dome and Palace, a culinary destination
(Gimme some, gimme some, gimme some, extra sauce)
King of Donair, Sicilian, the European Food Shop
(Show me some, show me some, show me some, extra sass)
House music blasting, the high jinks nonstop
(Slice me up, slice me up, slice me up, a zesty piece)
Tinfoil tumbleweeds, rolled around the streets
(Serve me up, serve me up, serve me up, some tasty grease)
As we'd debate, the night's wins and defeats

Did you get any phone numbers tonight
Nope
Hey, is it okay if I brought my donair in your cab, I promise not to make a mess
Yeah, right

(Gimme some, gimme some, gimme some, extra sauce)
Pizza Corner, three shops and a wall
(Show me some, show me some, show me some, extra sass)
Gonna eat some slices, after the pub crawl
(Slice me up, slice me up, slice me up, a zesty piece)
Grafton and Blowers, it was a prime location
(Serve me up, serve me up, serve me up, some tasty grease)
Near the Dome and Palace, a culinary destination
(Gimme some, gimme some, gimme some, extra sauce)
King of Donair, Sicilian, the European Food Shop
(Show me some, show me some, show me some, extra sass)
House music blasting, the high jinks nonstop
(Slice me up, slice me up, slice me up, a zesty piece)
Tinfoil tumbleweeds, rolled around the streets
(Serve me up, serve me up, serve me up, some tasty grease)
As we'd debate, the night's wins and defeats

Yeah, I need a coke, got change for a five
