Of Thee I Sing: Posterity Is Just Around the Corner

Why, posterity is just around the corner

Posterity is just around the corner

Posterity is just around the corner

It really doesn't pay to be a mourner

Posterity is just around the corner

Posterity is here—I don't mean maybe

There's nothing guarantees it like a baby

Posterity is here and will continue

We really didn't know you had it in you

Posterity is in its infancy

I sing to every citizen and foreigner

Posterity is just around the corner

We'll soon be pulling plums like Jackie Horner

Posterity is just around the—

Oom-posterity, oom-posterity, oom-pah, oom-pah, oom-posterity

Oom-posterity, oom-posterity, oom-pah, oom-pah, oom—

Posterity is just around the corner

Around the corner!
