Groovy Times by The Clash Lyrics

The High Street shops, they're boarded up
And the terrace it is fenced in
See-through shields are walled across
The way that you came in
But there's no need to get excited
As the lorries bring the bacon in
'Cause the housewives are all singin'

Groovy times are here again

They discovered one black Saturday
That mobs don't march they run
So you can excuse the nervous trigger man
Just this once for jumpin' the gun
As they were pickin' up the dead
Out of the broken glass
Yes it's number one, the radio said
Groovy times have come to pass!

Groovy times
Groovy times
Groovy times
(Groovy)

Yeah, the intake is on the uptake
The acceleration's pretty grim
I can remember his first appearance
Now look what's happened to him
So they put him in a dog suit
Like from 1964
The king of early evenin' ITV
Groovy times forever more

Groovy times
Groovy times

Groovy times
Groovy times
Groovy times

Groovy times
Groovy times
Groovy times
