lyrics

When you attend a funeral
its sad to think that sooner or later
those you love will do the same for you.
you might’ve thought it rather tragic
not to mention other adjectives
to think of all the weeping they will do
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
the’ll be no body left behind to grieve…

and we will all go together when we go
what a comforting fact that is to know
universal bereavement
an inspiring achievement

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 so 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 a rotisserie

oh we will all bake together when we bake
there’ll be nobody present at the wake
with complete participation in that grand incineration
oh we will all

char together when we char
and let there be no moaning of the bar
just sing out a tie deum
when you see that ICBM
and the party will be come as you are.

oh we will all go together when we go
every hottentot and every eskimo
when the air becomes uranius
we will all go simultaneous
so we will….
all go together when we go.
