"Life's much too short to last for long," If I could sing 'twould be my song, A tree that falls but no one hears? I'll bet some creature there has ears! A frog that jumps missed by a tree, 'Where sun don't shine,' (1) Philosophy! A cat is in a box that's locked, Atom's decay could mean it's clocked!
