But that big bull dozer would get you , We don't know what we own,
on your knees, But they ill fix it all up Mee,
Of course they'll level off your lawn, That we can't Ste a stone, And it won't cost you a cent, Yes we are going to have paved roads,
They will cover up your gate and post With taxes soaring high
But the big sides must have their say,
They don't rare for you and I.
We are living in a fast age,
We must float with the tide.
