So sorry, dear old friend, you have to die
We've been such goodly partners, you and I
Such comrades in our work, and mates at play
We've lived together many a happy day

It's only lately that you disappoint
Sluggish in limb and clogged in every joint
But that is not your fault, for grim old Time
Has blocked your tiny arteries with lime
And cut your sap and left its withering trace
In every wrinkle of your dear old face

No, faithful comrade, I have nought but praise
If there were fault, 'twas mine. You walked the ways
On which I led you, be they low or high
Thanks for all services ! And so good-bye!

Good-bye, old friend! You've used me many a year
And, as you say, I'm rather out of gear
And quite disposed to rest. No doubt you'll find
Some other form congenial to your mind

And moulded on this wreck you leave behind
For that, they say, persists. May it be one
That serves you faithfully, as I have done
Of course its right our partnership to sever
Since I am old and you as young as ever

I'll find some cancer cell or handy germ
To bring my waning forces to a term
And break the framework of the old machine
Then down at Woking or at Golder's Green

They'll do the trick. And you, friend, from afar
Will see the oaken chest or cinder jar
And know that I have gone without a pang
Back to the elements from which I sprang
