His Last Role
A brilliant British actor, Rik Mayall
excelled as a stand-up comedian,
and displayed fireball creativity
to inspire actors by his approach to sitcom.
A pioneer in the form of alternative comedy,
he tragically ditched another relationship,
eloped with Barabara to marry her
in a rather dramatic manner.
A successful career ended abruptly,
when he died suddenly of heart attack.
The death many considered unexplained,
for he had a strong heart.
It’s not known if he was prompted
by his friends who took their own lives.
He played in tragi comedy scene his last role
to be a member of the 56 club.
