Spoken: I am reminded at this point of a fellow I used to know Whose name was Henry, only to give you an idea of what A individualist he was, he spelled it H-E-N-3-R-Y - The three was silent, you see Henry was financially independent, having inherited his Father's tar-and-feather business, and was therefore Able to devote his full time to such intellectual pursuits As writing. I particularly remember a heartwarming novel Of his about a young necrophiliac who finally achieved his Boyhood ambition by becoming coroner... (The rest of you Can look it up when you get home.) In addition to writing, he indulged in a good deal of Philosophizing. Like so many contemporary philosophers, he Especially enjoyed giving helpful advice to people who were Happier than he was. And one particular bit of advice which I recall - which is the reason I bring up this whole dreary Story - is something he said once, before they took him away To the "Massachusetts State Home for the Bewildered" He said: "Life is like a sewer - what you get out of it depends On what you put into it." It's always seemed to me that this Is precisely the sort of dynamic, positive thinking that we so Desperately need today in these trying times of crisis and Universal brouhaha. And so with this in mind, I have here a Modern, positive, dynamic, uplifting song, in the tradition Of the great old revival hymns. This one might more accurately Be termed a survival hymn. It goes like this Sung: When you attend a funeral It is sad to think that sooner o' Later those you love will do the same for you And you may have thought it tragic Not to mention other adjec- Tives, to think of all the weeping they will do (But don't you worry.) No more ashes, no more sackcloth And an armband made of black cloth Will some day never more adorn a sleeve For if the bomb that drops on you Gets your friends and neighbors too There'll be nobody left behind
