"Canary in a Coalmine" is a song by The Police off their third studio album Zenyatta Mondatta. The title refers to the practice of coal miners carrying canaries into mines for protection because the birds are more sensitive to carbon monoxide and if they died, the miners would know that the dangerous gas was present. "Canary in a Coalmine" was written by lead vocalist and bassist, Sting. It has punk/reggae influences with harmonies throughout. The lyrics are about a person who lives their life too cautiously. "You say you want to spend the winter in Firenza / You're so afraid to catch a dose of influenza / You live your life like a canary in a coalmine / You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line."
The background track for "Canary in a Coalmine"is available with background vocals or as an instrumental on Karaoke Version.
