Remember Moose Mountain

[Chorus]
Remember Moose Mountain and the way that we knew
Pleasures were simple, troubles were few
And the way that we knew

[Verse 1]
That was before the big money came
Conned the town council with a big money scheme
To make us all healthy, wealthy and wise
When I think of it, we were so easy to please

[Chorus]
Remembеr Moose Mountain and the way that we knеw
Pleasures were simple, troubles were few
And the way that we knew

[Chorus]
Remember Moose Mountain on a cold winter's night
Stars all a-twinkle, clear and bright
On a cold winter's night

[Verse 2]
That was before the floodlights were there
They lit up the sky with a hazy glare
To please and pamper the night-skiing crowd
And spoil the view from our humble abode

[Chorus]
Remember Moose Mountain on a cold winter's night
Stars all a-twinkling, clear and bright
On a cold winter's night

[Chorus]
Remember Moose Mountain up over the hill
The hush of the woods, skiing the trail
Up over the hill

[Verse 3]
Now all around, wherever you are
You hear the din from the disco bar
And like it or lump it, all you can do
Is go with the amplified hullabaloo

[Chorus]
Remember Moose Mountain up over the hill
The hush of the woods, skiing the trail
Up over the hill

[Chorus]
We all hope it'll be for the best
When progress has gone and progressed
It'll be for the best

[Verse 4]
But, oh boy, better watch out
For all that goes down on the charge account
For goods and services given on trust
Who's gonna pay if the bubble goes bust

[Chorus]
We all hope it'll be for the best
When progress has gone and progressed
It'll be for the best

[Chorus]
Remember Moose Mountain and try to relax
Never the same again one day to next
Try to relax

[Verse 5]
What'll all come of it, I'll never know
But here is home, we have to make do
So try to sit tight, hold onto your hats
For it's not over yet, it's not over yet

[Chorus]
Remember Moose Mountain and the way that we knew
Pleasures were simple, troubles were few
And the way that we knew
