Growing Growing Gone

Pick up your guitar And sing me a song This was groover's paradise Now the groover is gone Was a cool little city But time marches on Growing Growing Gone Hold up your shovels They're plated in gold We're breaking new ground today Hear the bull-dozers roll Smile for the camera With your sunglasses on Growing growing gone Cranes on the skyline Popping up through the trees Grackles on the tables Vultures on the breeze You just can't buy cool Straight off the rack Once the music's over It ain't coming back Pick up your guitar And I'll throw you a five How do you do it, man? I don't know how you survive So many people and it won't be too long Growing growing gone But if you can't cut it here I guess you'll have to move on Growing growing gone
