Thanks, Addy, for reminding me of that wonderful song. I put Liza's recording on and went back in time.
Remember the dialogue in between choruses:
You know what the trouble is?
The trouble is that probably all of the good things in life take place in no more than a minute.
I mean all added up--I betcha at the end of 70 years--should you live so long!--you can sit down, you can figure the whole thing out:
You spent 19 years sleeping.
You spent 5 years going to the bathroom.
You spent 35 years doing some kind of work you absolutely HATED.
You spent 7,853 minutes blinking your eyes.
And added to that, you got that one minute of good things.
Then, one day, you wonder whether your minute's up...
And then Liza goes back into the song:
And then we'll move on...
But we will remember,
Long after Saturday's go-o-one...
Hope you had a nice Saturday morning. It's Saturday afternoon already.
