Arthur Is at a Shiva

I was down at a work party last week to Celebrate the end of the summer It was the end of the evening then And I was at a bar up in midtown Jerry's feeling like chicken tonight And he orders some wings from the waitress And then Jerry and I traded shots at the bar It was the typical shenanigans But where's Arthur now? Legendary tales from the workweek A strong mix of heroics and gin I was drunk in the evening then And that's when Arthur walks through the door He says, "I was just at a shiva today for the Death of a good friend of mine A towering figure in my early life He was an excellent specimen." Hey Arthur don't look away! No need to hang your head in disarray You know that it's just a change yeah I've heard that it's just a change Hey Arthur, don't look dismayed! No need to hang your head in disarray You know that it's just a change yeah I've heard that It's just a change I was at a funeral some years ago For the death of a good friend of mine I was there as a shoulder to cry on But prone to get choked up, but see She wore a bright yellow summer dress And a big sad smile on her face Said that she's in a much better place now A good thing to recognize Hey Arthur don't look away! No need to hang your head in disarray You know that it's just a change yeah I've heard that it's just a change Hey Arthur, don't look dismayed! No need to hang your head in disarray You know that it's just a change yeah I've heard that It's just a change I was at an industry conference Up in the north of Virginia I ran into a salesman's wife A woman drunk on Chardonnay She whispered to me drunkenly She believes that the body's a vessel And the soul moves on to another dimension I said "typical drunk talk." Hey Arthur don't look away! No need to hang your head in disarray You know that it's just a change yeah I've heard that it's just a change Hey Arthur, don't look dismayed! No need to hang your head in disarray You know that it's just a change yeah I've heard that It's just a change
