I missed the anniversary of the death of Brian Cant, the legendary BBC entertainer and presenter, by just one day. He died June 19, 2017.
Here, then, is my tribute to him. It’s a parody. Words by me, sung by me.
Time Flies By When I'm The Driver Of A Hearse
Time flies by when I'm the driver of a hearse.
When you ride in the back, things can't get any worse!
Undertakers bear you to your final destination,
Slowly through the countryside so that you can be seen.
Multitudes witnessing your incineration.
Look - the crematorium signal is on green!
Time flies by when I'm the driver of a hearse.
When you ride in the back, things can't get any worse!
There's no lighting down that tunnel;
Life is just a one-way track!
Grieving bearers, wreaths and flowers;
Trust me - there's no coming back!
Time flies by when I'm the driver of a hearse.
When you ride in the back, things can't get any worse!
