Black History Month lyrics

[Verse 1]
Do you remember a time when this city was
A great place for architects and dilettantes?
A nice place for midwives and crossing guards?
And on and on

[Chorus]
Hold on, hold on, children
Your mother and father are leaving, leaving

[Verse 2]
Do you remember a time when this pool was
A great place for water-wings and cannonballs?
A nice place for astrologists and blow-up dolls?
On and on, on and on

[Chorus]
Hold on, hold on, children
Your mother and father are leaving, leaving
Hold on, hold on, children
Your best friend's parents are leaving, leaving

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Hold on, hold on, children
Your mother and father are leaving, leaving
Hold on, hold on, children
Your best friend's parents are leaving, leaving
[Outro]
Hold on, hold on, children
Your best friend's parents are leaving, leaving
