about

Jonni wrote the lyrics to this and asked me to make it into a song. She wrote it after the death of billionaire mogul Sumner Redstone (founder and Chairman of the second incarnation of Viacom).

lyrics

I met a traveler from an antique land
Who gave me a big bucket of sand
She told me "you've long since passed
This bucket of sand is all that's left"

At the end of eternity
when all of time has passed
We will look at your shattered visage and laugh
For you and your family are dead and gone
And so is everything you've ever done

Back in those old days
You would often laugh from
Up on your ivory tower
The pointing
The screaming
The laughing
The killing
As you'd slurp up vast rivers

And in your final days
You'll still screaming
But the difference will be
Your in horrible pain
As the atrocities you've committed
Flash before your week and pail eyes
Your beautiful kingdom is now a colossal wreck
Your body is not much better
In time you will be gone and all of nature herself will laugh
Her oceans
her forests
Her animals
Her clay

She will laugh forever
Meanwhile you'll be rotting
Your face becoming one with the dirt
Someday you'll be so meaningless
That you wont even be there to rot
