You Can't Stay Here

© 1986 Neal Gladstone

You can pamper your condition
With exercise and good nutrition
You can tint that gray here
Work out twice a day here
But you know what they say dear:
You can't stay here
 
You can rise to wealth and power
Reigning from your corporate tower
You can buy and sell here
Watch your profits swell here
But when they ring that bell dear:
You can't stay here
 
When we were young
We always hung together
Where are you now
Positive that we would live forever
Now you're not around
Since you've gone underground
 
You can tangle our emotion
You can bank on our devotion
You can lead the blind here
Feed us all a line here
But keep one thing in mind dear:
You can't say here
 
I tried to find a valentine to send you
Where are you now
I really hope its meaning won't offend you
Now you're not around
Since you've gone underground
 
You can take the road to glory
Rolling Stone can write your story
You can be the one here
Who rides into the sun here
Hope you're having fun dear
Cause you can't stay here
Please take a number
Sing for your supper
You aint gettin younger
Sure gonna miss ya
Ya can't take it with ya
