Monument |
| I dreamt I saw a monument |
| Erected in my name, |
| The mayor was there to cut the ribbon |
| Still nobody came |
| The pond was stocked with fishes |
| Hand selected, one-by-one, |
| Refreshments for a thousand sat there spoiling in the sun |
| Sculptors from italy, |
| Carving a marble me, |
| Incredibly lifelike hair, |
| Read the inscription there |
| Donated all his time, |
| Concocting silly rhymes, |
| And waiting for the dinner bell to chime |
| It was a snow-white edifice, all flecked |
| With gold and green |
| But when they pulled the curtain, |
| There was noone to be seen |
| The wind blew long and cold |
| Between the chairs arranged in rows, |
| The only thing upon them |
| Were the streamers and bows |
| Sculptors from italy, |
| Carving a marble me, |
| Incredibly lifelike hair, |
| Read the inscription there |
| Donated all his time, |
| Concocting silly rhymes, |
| And waiting for the dinner bell to chime |
| The mayor packed up his scissors, |
| And removed his beaver hat |
| He figured he should go, |
| The Veuve Clicquot had all gone flat |
| The keynote speaker took one lok and got back into the cab |
| His words already etched |
| Upon that alabaster slab |
