All in a day's work


The saluting general came by this way
Forgiving all the ink
He had his pig
He had his sway
He painted them all in pink
And nuts fell from the balding sky
Like hair down in the sink
And I asked - lord why must we die?
And he said why do you think?

I said I think the jelly
The jelly, what the hell?
I said yeah I think the Jelly
When it rolls you cannot tell
But when it rolls, you know you live
You know you don’t wanna die
So, keep them pennies falling from heaven
And in time the good saints will fly
