作词 : - 作曲 : - I'll see you at the Weighing-In, When your life's sum-total's made And you set your wealth in Godly deeds Against the sins you've laid. And you place your final burden On your hard-pressed next of kin: Send the chamber-pot back down the line To be filled up again. And the hard-headed miracle worker Who bathes his hands in blood, Will welcome you to the final nod --- And cover you with mud. And he'll say, ``You really should make the deal, '' As he offers round the hat. ``You'd better lick two fingers clean --- He'll thank you all for that. '' As you slip on the greasy platform, And you land upon your back, You make a wish and you wipe your nose upon the railway track. While the high-strung locomotive, With furnace burning bright, Lumbers on --- you wave goodbye --- And the sparks fade into night. And as you join the Good Ship Earth, And you mingle with the dust --- You'd better leave your underpants With someone you can trust. And when the Old Man with the telescope Cuts the final strand --- You'd better lick two fingers clean, Before you shake his hand.
