We Will All Go Together When We Go (Tom Lehrer)

I always like to end on a positive note.
So here is a rousing, uplifting song, which is guaranteed to cheer you up.

When you attend a funeral
It is sad to think that sooner or later
Those you love will do the same for you

And you may have thought it tragic
Not to mention other adjectives
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 someday 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 to grieve

And we will all go together when we go
Oh, what a comforting fact that is to know
Universal bereavement, an inspiring achievement
Yes, we all will go together when we go

We will all go together when we go
All suffused with an incandescent glow
No one will have the endurance to collect on his insurance
Lloyd's of London will be loaded when they go

We will all fry together when we fry
We'll be french fried potatoes by and by
There will be no more misery, when the world is our rotisserie
Yes, we will all fry together when we fry

And we will all bake together when we bake
There'll be nobody present at the wake
With complete participation in that grand incineration
Nearly three billion hunks of well-done steak

We will all char together when we char
And let there be no moaning of the bar
Just sing out a te diem when you see that I-C-B-M
And the party will be "come as you are"

We will all burn together when we burn
There'll be no need to stand and wait your turn
When it's time for the fallout and Saint Peter calls us all out
We'll just drop our agendas and adjourn

We will all go together when we go
Every Hottentot and every Eskimo
When the air becomes Uranius
And we will all go simultaneous
Yes, we all will go together
When we all go together
Yes, we all will go together when we go
