Over the decades, We've worked it out. No need for a Power of anyone. If I go blind, You'll be my sight. And so on. I will supply What you lack; And you promised, Should I ***** To leave me on my back.

Leave Me On My Back
If he says one day, he takes seven. Does he know it shortens his life. A two month job takes a year off him. His runs to the lumber mill, and beer, To the hardware store, and tokes; Then to the beer store, And smokes. Sometimes, not often, but occasionally, Whiskey and wine, With beer. And the morphine for his back... whew! Seven to one ratio sounds true, but poor odds. In his favour, he's below average in height, like a small dog, it helps longevity. In most small dogs, In what we call the Free World, With government assisted suicide. There's a call coming in. George G is building a shed Out back. Gotta go.
