~

When this old world finally winds down

and we’re not around, forgotten, passe,

we will have said what we’ve had to say;

we will have made our day.

 

~

Do not go downnot making a sound.

Shake up the ground,make it profound.

Done!  Done!  When everything’s gone,

Make it renown what you say.

 

~

Then when this world has finally spun down,

all that pround and ever renown,

Gone!  All Gone! When everything’s done!

Know this:  You too had your day.

 

~

Do not go down without making some sound

when you could have your own day.

And when this old world has finally wound down,

Leave it with something to say.
