[00:17.000] I'll see you at the Weighing-In
[00:24.000] When your life's sum-total's made
[01:41.000] And you set your wealth in Godly deeds
[01:45.000] Against the sins you've laid
[01:49.000] And you place your final burden
[01:53.000] On your hard-pressed next of kin:
[01:56.000] Send the chamber-pot back down the line
[02:01.000] To be filled up again
[02:07.000] And the hard-headed miracle worker
[02:11.000] Who bathes his hands in blood
[02:15.000] Will welcome you to the final nod
[02:19.000] And cover you with mud
[02:23.000] And he'll say, "You really should make the deal,"
[02:27.000] As he offers round the hat
[02:30.000] "You'd better lick two fingers clean
[02:35.000] He'll thank you all for that."
[02:41.000] As you slip on the greasy platform
[02:44.000] And you land upon your back
[02:48.000] You make a wish and you wipe your nose upon the railway track
[02:56.000] While the high-strung locomotive
[03:00.000] With furnace burning bright
[03:03.000] Lumbers on
[03:05.000] You wave goodbye
[03:07.000] And the sparks fade into night
[03:32.000] And as you join the Good Ship Earth
[03:36.000] And you mingle with the dust
[03:40.000] You'd better leave your underpants
[03:44.000] With someone you can trust
[03:47.000] And when the Old Man with the telescope
[03:52.000] Cuts the final strand
[03:55.000] You'd better lick two fingers clean
[04:04.000] Before you shake his hand
