Introduction
Absent friends, here's to them, and
happy days, we thought that they would never end.
Here's to absent friends.
Little Jean Seberg seemed. So full of life,
but in those eyes such troubled dreams.
Poor little Jean.
Woodbine Willie couldn't rest until he'd
Given every bloke a final smoke before the
killing.
Old Woodbine Willie.
Oscar Wilde was a lonely child.
He fought and won acceptance from the world.
They smiled, they laughed, they praised,
They drove poor Oscar to his grave.
Absent friends, here's to them,
And happy days, we thought that they would never
But they always end.
Raise your glasses then to absent friends.
