Guy-

I'm spacing on the first verse right now, but here's the rest of it. If I think of it, I'll post it later.

UNREQUITED TO THE Nth DEGREE
by Loudon Wainright III

....

Might it be a plane wreck
or some sort of O.D.
There's gonna be a photograph
with my obituary.
You're gonna read it and feel sorry
Yeah, you're gonna wanna wear black.
I may be dead, but you can bet your life
I'm gonna get you back.

CHORUS:
Ha ha ha ha
Ho ho ho ho
Chuckle chuckle chuckle chuckle
Snicker snicker snicker snicker
Guffaw guffaw guffaw
Yuk yuk yuk yuk
Ha ha ha ha

I'm tired of sittin'
up here on your shelf
I may not wait around
I might kill myself.
Not only will you miss me
but you'll feel guilty too.
I may be dead, but it'll be too late
the joke will be on you.

So you better take warnin'
and start treating me good
Start doin' the things
I think you should
And you better not pout,
and you better not cry,
the grim reaper is a-comin'to town
and I just might die!
