Gather-me-grandchildren if you love a good mystery Gather-me-grandchildren for a little church history It's 2044 You're avoiding our turn-of-the-century ways How did we strike it rich? Kissing up to the powerful How did we make our pitch? Satellites by the towerful Why do you young people have to go and get caught up in a radical phase? My conscience was clear and my wallet was full I didn't hear none of this "sacrifice" bull Tough times call for a backtrack Gimme that old-time easy listening Cuddle up, yeah, yeah 12 Hours, twice a day Cuddle up, yeah, yeah Simmer down Attaway Color me old-fashioned, but I still remember when The sermons were affirming, 'cause the Lord liked us better then It's 2044 And I don't want to be my brother's keeper no more Color me chicken yellow if I liked it in the ozone Call me lemon jello if I lacked a little backbone We're King's Kids, dang it And we used to know what a housekeeper was for Tickle my ear and I'll pay for your show Sing about stuff that I already know Whisper sweet nothings Pour a nightcap Gimme that old-time easy listening Cuddle up, yeah, yeah 12 Hours, twice a day Cuddle up, yeah, yeah Simmer down Attaway Cuddle up, yeah, yeah Order now, don't delay Cuddle up, yeah, yeah Sleep it off Drool away Gather-me-round children, 'cause your faith is a mystery Gather me grandchildren for a little church history It's 2044 And I miss our turn-of-the-century ways How did we strike it rich? Kissing up to the powerful How did we make our pitch? Satellites by the towerful Why do you young hotheads have to go and get caught up in a radical phase? I'm ok, you're ok, we're ok, so I think I'm gonna buy my own radio show Spread the good news and the Barry Manilow Happy talk, no rock, non-stop easy listening
