Grandpa You're a Goner (But the Economy Will Be Just Fine)
we took grandpa to the doctor cause we thought he might have that ol’ Covid-19 doctor took a look at poor ol’ grandpa said that’s about the worst case that he’d ever seen then he said "listen to me grandpa the truth i’ll tell" he said "grandpa you’re a goner but don’t you worry too much the economy will do just swell" (that oughtta make ya feel better)
now the next day grandma she wasn’t feeling so good we took her down to see the doctor too was a big long line of people waiting there average age i’d say was about eighty two so some nurses came down the line passin’ out some papers for us to read it said you old folks have got to do your part for the furtherance of corporate greed if all of you old folks, you know who you are would just kindly step off the scene then the economy would be just fine you know what we mean (outta the way grandma)
so listen up old timer, dying now is the most patriotic thing you could do cause if you ain’t part of the work force just exactly what's the use of you? what's the use of you? (i got to wonder ... let me think about that)
then little Billy came down with some symptoms little Billy’s only six years old we saw a man on the TV in the doctor’s waiting room he said "this is how it is, truth be told" then he said "quarterly earnings and the bottom line are under serious threat and we can’t afford to do too much for those not generating income yet" little Billy’s folks have got to understand that if we make some sacrifices the economy will do just grand do just grand
see you later little Billy! bye bye grandma! we won't forget you, grandpa!
