I've Got A Thing About Seeing My Grandson Grow Old

I buy the nicest things

From a supermarket store.

Vitamin land and marzipan

And I know just what they're all for.

I've organized my useless life in a way

I've never done before.

Even visit the dentist now,

But I got no time

For silly chitter chatter.

I'm on my way,

'Cause while my blood's still warm

And my mind doesn't matter,

I'm hopin' to stay,

Because I've got a thing about

Seein' my grandson grow old.

I just can't wait to see

That city on the moon

With air conditioned gardens

That'll play your favorite tune.

I'll see my feet upon that street

If it's the last thing that I do.

Even sweep the roads to be there,

But I got no time

For silly chitter chatter.

I'm on my way,

'Cause while my blood's still warm

And my mind doesn't matter,

I'm hopin' to stay,

Because I've got a thing about

Seein' my grandson grow old.

I'll see my feet upon that street

If it's the last thing that I do.

Even sweep the roads to be there,

But I got no time

For silly chitter chatter.

I'm on my way,

'Cause while my blood's still warm

And my mind doesn't matter,

I'm hopin' to stay,

Because I've got a thing about

Seein' my grandson grow old.
