OK, Folks, you know the drill. Allright everyone, let’s gather in front of our large, 13″, Black and White TV set, and watch as a tall, lanky man in a khaki uniform strides out, introduces himself as Sheriff John, and says: OK, Lunch Brigaders, today we have a special song going out to Ms. mertuil in honor of her special day. He pulls out his guitar, slicks back his hair in the manner of They Might Be Giants, and starts singing:
| You’re older than you’ve ever been And now you’re even older And now you’re even older And now you’re even older You’re older than you’ve ever been And now you’re even older And now you’re older still Time is marching on |
This day will soon be at an end And now it’s even sooner And now it’s even sooner And now it’s even sooner This day will soon be at an end And now it’s even sooner And now it’s sooner still You’re older than you’ve ever been |
I’ll close with my favorite song (Real Media), which given the year you’ve had, is always worth remembering:
| Laugh and be happy And the world will laugh with you When people see you smiling, They can’t help smiling too. When you look out the window To a dark and gloomy day Bring out a smile, and in a while, The gloom will go away |
So Laugh and be happy, With a merry melody. A song will make a hat rack Look like a Christmas Tree. Get rid of worry in a hurry, chase the blues away. Just laugh and be happy all the live long day. |
Happy Birthday, mertuil!
[Please remember, if you fill out the poll in this posting, I can do my best to see that you get the birthday song you want.]
