|
the rumors of your demise (oh my! oh yes!) |
|
exaggerated at best (who knows? i guess) |
|
and from what i surmise (oh my! oh yes!) |
|
you've changed the world more or less |
|
(so says the press) |
|
hey mr. my hat is off to you |
|
hey mr. my hat is off |
|
i owe it all to you, i owe it all to you |
|
with eloquence on your side (no lie, no way) |
|
sincerity on your face (alright, ok) |
|
and you look so dignified (no lie, no way) |
|
my doubts are fully displaced (my fears allay) |
|
trees are greener now |
|
children laugh out loud |
|
there is peace and harmony again |
|
no pain or poverty |
|
thanks to your policies |
|
i heard it all on n.p. radio |
|
then the birds will sing, |
|
"thanks for everything!" |
|
all the hindus bow |
|
"thanks for the holy cows!" |
|
in 2093, they'll curse your legacy |
|
in 2094, they will exhume your corpse |
