an all-out war situation,
and... Well, I mean,
another I... IBM... might...
might come over.
Oh, it's stuffy in these bags.
Yes.
Now you know what it
feels like to be a potato.
I should hate that,
being buried in the ground.
Oh, yes. Yes, so would I.
- Give me... cremation every time.
- Oh, me too.
We'd better just stay here and wait
for the... emergency services to arrive.
Y-y-yes. Yes, they'll... they'll take...
they'll take good care of us.
We won't have to worry about...
about a thing.
Just... Just leave
everything to them.
The governmental authorities...
will know what to do with us.
The powers that be...
will get to us in the end.
You have got the box with our medical
cards and birth certificates, haven't you?
Yes, dear, yes.
They're quite safe.
Shall we pray, dear?
- Pray?
- Yes.
Oh, crumbs. Who... Who to?
Well, God, of course.
Oh... Oh, I see.
Y-yes. If you think it... it... would be...
would be the correct thing. Hm?
- It can't do any harm, dear.
- OK.
Here goes.
Dear... sir...
No, that's wrong.
Well... How... How...
How do you start?
Oh, God...
Our help... in ages past?
That's it. Keep it up.
Almighty and most
merciful Father...
Oh, that's good.
Dearly beloved,
we are gathered...
u-u-unto thee...
I shall fear no evil.
Thy rod... and thy staff...
comfort me
all... the days...
the days of my life.
L-Lay me down... in...
in green pastures...
I... I can't remember any more.
That was nice.
I liked the bit about
the green pasture.
Oh, oh, yes, yes.
Into the valley of the
shadow of death...
No more, love.
No more.
Rockabye baby
On the tree top
When the wind blows
The cradle will rock
Oh, babe
Hate to see you fall that way
Better speak to the
powers that be today
Hey Joe, where you goin'
with that gun in your hand?
You can take your revenge
But you'll still feel bad
There must be more to
life than lucky strikes
And some unlucky ones
And folded flags and pipes
And drums
Our lives in the hands
of a second-rate actor
Holding the high ground
Of some old stage
Oh, babe
How do these jaded
stars get so far away?
Will they catch what
the moral had to say?
Hey Joe, where you goin' with
that dogma in your head?
You can prove your point
But your kids will still be dead
Bring down the curtain
This soap opera must surely close
Before the cold wind blows
Hey Joe, where you goin'
with that gun in your hand?
You can take your revenge
But you'll still feel bad
Bring down the curtain
This show must close
Before the cold wind blows
So rockabye baby
On the tree top
When the wind blows
The cradle will rock
There must be more to
life than lucky strikes
And some unlucky ones
And folded flags and pipes
And drums
