Ansbacher Waltz

Granddaddy tell me how it used to be back at the turn of the century
Millions of people living no pain in big cement tents to keep out the rain
When you ate tomatoes that didn't have ears, granddaddy tell me about those years
And the cabbage y'ate it used to be green and y'all travelled round in four wheel machines
And the High King with his Parisian style and things that talked across thousands of miles
And the Court of Kilkenny wasn't under the sea
And the Ansbacher Waltzers danced free

Y'ate silicone fish with microwave chips that you cooked at home on the range
And you used to spray the Millennium Bugs and you had plastic cards for your change
Computers, commuters financial Bucks-Fizz, soap operas to clean with is that how it is?
Oprah the heroin up on the hill, Chop 'em out Charlie with an ecstasy pill
Daniel O'???? Connell, mammy's best boy, St. Gaybo's magical mystery toys
And the Wig-Men that won what the rest of us lost. And a pound of pornography what did that cost?

The High King with his Parisian style and things that talked across thousands of miles
And the Court of Kilkenny wasn't under the sea
And the Ansbacher Waltzers danced free

The High King with his Parisian style and things that talked across thousands of miles
And the Court of Kilkenny wasn't under the sea
And the Ansbacher Waltzers danced free
The Ansbacher Waltzers danced free
