HOW ARE WE SUPPOSED TO GROW UP,
IF WE'RE NOT ALLOWED TO GO INTO THE WORLD,
TRY NEW THINGS, AND TAKE SOME RISKS?
- HALLOWEENTOWN
If you died today, not in
85 years.If this, your last day on earth was today.How much
would you care of the why or the where,if your last day on
earth was today?You might first care to eat three, four course
dinners,then skip out the joint and not even pay.If they tossed
you in jail, who'd care,you'd be cold as a stone, quite
soon anyway.If you last day on earth was today,you could leave
the coroner on the hook for your cremation.Rush your ashes off
to local train station.Having lived not so long, a lover
got gypped or a true love to share.
Tell me how much would folks care,and who'd really be
there.
Or drinking it off somewhere,
crying cool crocodile tears,
If you died today,
not in 85 years.
