Can you remember a time when this city was

A great place for architects and dilletantes

A nice place for midwives and crossing guards

And on, and on...

Hold on, hold on, children

Your mother and father are leaving, leaving

Do you remember a time when this pool was

A great place for waterwings and cannonballs

A nice place for astrologists and blow-up dolls

And on, and on, and on, and on...

Hold on, hold on, children

Your mother and father are leaving

Hold on, hold on, children

Your best friend's parents are leaving, leaving

(Repeat)

Wooww..

Hold on, hold on, children

Your best friend's parents are leaving
