In Grandma's time, there were1
Flowers which grew in her garden
The time passed alone stays as thoughts
And in your hands there's nothing left
{Chorus}
Who killed Grandma, is it the time
Where men no longer have the time
To pass the time?
la la la la la la...
In Grandma's time, there was
Silence to listen to
The branches on the trees, the leaves on the branches
The birds on the leaves and they sang
{Chorus}
The bulldozer killed Grandma
and changed her flowers into jackhammers
The singing birds only find construction sites
Is that why we're crying for you?
{Chorus}
Who killed Grandma, is it the time
Where men no longer have the time
To pass the time?
