The high street shops are boarded up
An the terrace it is fenced in
See-through shields are walled across
The way that you came in
But theres no need to get excited
As the lorries bring the bacon in
cos the housewives are all singing
Groovy times are here again
They discovered one black saturday
That mobs dont march they run
So you can excuse the nervous triggerman
Just this once for jumping the gun
As they were picking up the dead
Out of the broken glass
Yes its number one, the radio said
Groovy times have come to pass!
Groovy times groovy times groovy times
The intake is on the uptake
The accelerations pretty grim
I can remember his first appearance
Now look whats happened to him
So they put him in a dog suit
Like from 1964
The king of early evening tv
Groovy times forever more
Groovy times
