The Stevens - Down in the Ground (US, 1983)

"Build a cement hull for your Cruise
To generations ahead
The world's been hoed, the seeds are sewn
And you've built a future for your family and pets

You're down in the ground
Is where you want to go
Down in the ground
You can grow for ages, can't you

Holiday Inn, its a virtual Masada
With powdered milk and soup
Stock it, store it, you simply adore it
And you don't need your wallet now

You're down in the ground
Is where you want to go
Down in the ground
You can grow for ages, can't you?"
