The restaurant chain that refuses to die

Good lord, Ground Round is back at the Concord Avenue rotary.

Okay!

So I wasn't hallucinating two weekends ago when I drove by there...

And another

I think there is one on Melina Cass Blvd, where it crosses Mass Ave. Also a Dunkin Donuts with a 7' tall cup of coffee.
Of course to get to these places you need to park in a garage and have your ticket validated. Can't imagine they are going to get lots of business.

When you eat meat but hate the meat that you're eating, then you've surely got
Ground Round

It's so unnerving when they're constantly serving in an eating spot
Ground Round

It could be called a chopped steak, a Salisbury or beef patty
No matter what it's called it's always overcooked and fatty

What can you do?

Go up to your waiter there
And loudly pound on your table
Stand up on your chair, and shout

Ground Round! Always you're giving me
Ground Round! Always you're feeding me
Ground Round! Why must it always be
Ground Round? (Ground Round ... Ground Round ... Ground Round ...)

(my grandpa taught me this song at summer camp.)

Awesome!

Awesome! That's up there with Y.O.D.A.
