That spring it started hot as I recall
I got laid off down at the hardware store
said folks don't come by like the good old days
They just hit the box store off the new highway
And I know they say
It's the modern way
And things have gone to far to turn back now
That year desolation came to town
The summer never cooled and the lakes all dried
and the crops all starved in perfect little lines
And the farmers they all started looking lean
but the grass in L.A. sure stayed nice and green
Now the state it had her put in just last year
with that highway you don't have to come round here
just drive on through what once were planted fields
then hit the box store I hear they got some deals
