227 - Stardust

It has been much discussed

We're all made of stardust

The atoms in your body

Last forever - that's not so shoddy

 

There's a pretty high percent

All your heavy elements

Even the ones that make your face

All came from outer space

 

The water in the atmosphere

Once passed through William Shakespeare

And was there way back long before

In the time of dinosaurs

 

So even though you’ll die

There's no real need to cry

Instead - have a little chortle

Because you're basically immortal
