Someone called the other day Said old Teddy Greenstreets pa**ed away They buried him on Saturday, They said it was a lovely way to go In his sleep, didn't know a thing His wife couldn't go Her second husband took her uptown to a show His sons and daughters emigrated said, It cost too much to travel home Sent a wreath and a sheath. Isn't it a shame that no one came The funeral was quiet, but all the same
He's much better off where he is now Rest in peace, Teddy.
