[00:00:00] Excerpt From A Teenage Opera - The Vocal Masters

[00:00:23] Count the days into years

[00:00:27] His eighty two brings many fears

[00:00:33] Yesterday's laughter turned to tears

[00:00:37] His arms and legs don't feel so strong

[00:00:40] His heart is weak there's something wrong

[00:00:43] Opens windows in despair

[00:00:46] Tries to breathe in some fresh air

[00:00:49] His conscience cries get on your feet

[00:00:51] Without you Jack the town can't eat

[00:00:54] Grocer Jack grocer Jack get off your back

[00:00:57] Go into town don't let them down oh no no

[00:01:05] Grocer jack grocer Jack get off your back

[00:01:09] Go into town don't let them down oh no no

[00:01:18] The people that live in the town

[00:01:22] Don't understand

[00:01:26] He's never been known to miss his round

[00:01:32] It's ten o'clock the housewives yell

[00:01:34] When Jack turns up we'll give him hell

[00:01:37] Husbands moan at breakfast tables

[00:01:39] No milk no egg no marmalade labels

[00:01:42] Mothers send their children out

[00:01:45] To Jack's house to scream and shout

[00:01:48] Grocer Jack grocer Jack get off your back

[00:01:52] Come into town don't let us down oh no no

[00:01:59] Grocer Jack grocer Jack get off your back

[00:02:02] Come into town don't let us down oh no no

[00:02:41] A Sunday morning bright and clear

[00:02:46] Lovely flowers decorate the marvellous square

[00:02:54] People cry and walk away

[00:02:57] And think about the fateful day

[00:02:59] Now they wish they'd given Jack

[00:03:02] More affection and respect

[00:03:05] Little children dressed in black

[00:03:07] Don't know what happened to old Jack

[00:03:10] Grocer Jack grocer Jack is it true what mummy says

[00:03:16] You won't come back oh no oh no
