    It's your daybe!

    Remember when we were young
    & we could be anyone
    we wanted to be?
    
    Now it's your daybe
    & we are who we are.
    
    Remember when we ran down mountains
    like Japhy Ryder (aka Gary Snyder)
    in Kerouac's _the Dharma Bums_?
    
    It's you daybe
    & we're still standing!
    
    Remember the loud concerts
    at the Terrace Ballroom?
    
    Well, it's your daybe
    & it's gone
    & a whisper will do.
    
    It's your daybe
    so let's all jump up
    & kick our heels together.
    
    Remember unending snow
    when we walked in tshirts?
    
    Now winter rain on your daybe.
    
    It's your daybe.  Sleep in
    slip dish dash down
    sh sh shh
    sure fit fine fancy
    
    so long the time tick tocks
    & we haven't even mentioned music
    
    drum drum drum---drum drum
    drum drum drum---drum drum
    drum drum drum---drum drum
    drum drum drum---drum drum
    
    all on your fine
    fit tick damn daybe!
    
    dance sing sit---drum drum
    dance sing sit---drum drum
    dance sing sit---drum drum
    
    may your days be
    long & on & on
    long & on & on
    long & on & on
    
    It's your daybe, for Christ's sake.
    Remember? ...
