Arlo Guthrie & Pete Seeger - In Dead Earnest lyrics

If I should die before I wake All my bone and sinew take Put me in the compost pile To decompose me for a while Worms, water, sun will have their way Returning me to common clay All that I am will feed the trees And little fishes in the seas When radishes and corn you munch You may be having me for lunch And then excrete me with a grin Chortling, "There goes Lee again" 'Twill be my happiest destiny To die and live eternally
