The Grasshopper Song

The Grasshopper Song - Franz Capone

Life like we lived it is leaving

I don't think we're achieving

What we had in mind

We sit back relax and even

Though we don't know

What is leaving

We're waving goodbye

Mike was a rock and roll star

With a golden one on the

Hollywood boulevard

If you asked me

O t would have

Made a great big movie

If he had had the money

But he hadn't

Tony was the new philosopher

If they had only let her

They didn't let her

Jenny was trying to

Do her own radio show

I mean she was

Ready to go

Life like we lived it is leaving

I don't think we're achieving

What we had in mind

We sit back relax and even

Though we don't know

What is leaving

We're waving goodbye

And no one I know is still

Trying to go

Where he wanted

Where she wanted

Before they think it's too late

And they can no longer wait

They have landed

Stranded

I see anyone around

Seeking safer ground

They won't f**k it

They can't find it

The grasshopper and me

We're not willing to see

They all call winter

Life like we lived it is leaving

I don't think we're achieving

What we had in mind

We sit back relax and even

Though we don't know

What is leaving

We're waving goodbye

Life like we lived it is leaving

I don't think we're achieving

What we had in mind

We sit back relax and even

Though we don't know

What is leaving

We're waving goodbye

Life like we lived it is leaving

I don't think we're achieving

We had in mind

We sit back relax and even

Though we're down

We're believing

That we can't get high

Life like we lived it is leaving

I don't think we're achieving

What we had in mind

We sit back relax and even

Though we're down

We're believing

That we can't get high
