*CHORUS*
Look it's that Grocery Ghost,
'Grocery Ghost'
all needed Products,
Wanted: Dead or Alive,
Shelves emptying from:
Coast to Coast tell me:
How long will America Survive.
*Verse*
From farmers grain Depletion,
to fertilizer Deletion,
Critters having Jitters,
with Scraps and no Repletion.
Dining out fellowship,
was a favorite Thrill,
Now eating out to go, where:
do we find a good Meal.
Breakfast, Lunch and Supper,
no full course Plates,
The Skinny Skeletons Plea,
the Human Race Dissipates.
Looking for fresh Meat,
tell me 'Where's the Beef',
The cow jumped the moon,
Charlie Brown Good Grief.
From Prime to Choice, and:
Grounded to Select On,
No Bison or Angus,
where the Buffalo Roam.
*CHORUS*
Look it's that Grocery Ghost,
'Grocery Ghost'
all needed Products,
Wanted: Dead or Alive,
Shelves emptying from:
Coast to Coast tell me:
How long will America Survive.
*Verse*
What's happening to Pork,
'The Other White Meat',
Or 'Move over Bacon',
for something better to Eat.
And in the Plight them Crows,
& Chickens on a Beg,
No Bread Crumbs to produce,
the Incredible Edible Egg.
No going back to rewind,
that beautiful Bean Footage,
Goldilocks went in Shock,
couldn't find no Porridge.
*CHORUS*
Look it's that Grocery Ghost,
'Grocery Ghost'
all needed Products,
Wanted: Dead or Alive,
Shelves emptying from:
Coast to Coast tell me:
How long will America Survive.
*Verse*
Without regular credit,
to maintain Efficiency,
Rigor Mortus sets in,
due to a vast Deficiency.
And money as we know it,
has no Value or Worth,
Parker Brothers Monopoly,
Community Chest gone North.
Bullwinkle can't even pull,
a Rabbit from the Hat,
So Rocky the Squirrel,
looks like a meal so Fat.
But there's still a Chance,
b 4 the Hostage Death Toast,
A Warning paid Fare, Beware:
of the Grocery Ghost.
*CHORUS*
Look it's that Grocery Ghost,
'Grocery Ghost'
all needed Products,
Wanted: Dead or Alive,
Shelves emptying from:
Coast to Coast tell me:
How long will America Survive.
