lyrics

Grandfather's gone and so is Father
how much longer can Mother last and look who's next
I'm foolin around wastin away
more frivolous supercilious each day serious play

as one generation passes away I listen to the preacher say
eat drink sleep rise and be merry
for who can say what will follow who can say what will follow

the last of a cigarette like the bottom of a beer
half way through the swagger I use to rule the mirror

I'm vain as a rooster vexation on my mind
my knowledge and possessions are dust
underneath the sun
my vineyards and my servants multiply like rabbits
my land abundant reaches far as I can see far as I can see

as one generation passes away I listen to the preacher say
eat drink sleep rise and be merry
for who can say what will follow who can say what will follow
