Funniest comment - Let's hope the remaining two, Paul and Ringo don't go the same way.- Lauren Llama, Liverpool
And, of course, a favorite of mine,
Where Lenin lies the red flag flies, and the rat-grey workers wait
To tread the gloom of Lenin's Tomb, where the Comrade lies in state.
With lagging pace they scan his face, so weary yet so firm;
For years a score they've laboured sore to save him from the worm.
The Kremlin walls are grimly grey, but Lenin's Tomb is red,
And pilgrims from the Sour Lands say: "He sleeps and is not dead."
Before their eyes in peace he lies, a symbol and a sign,
And as they pass that dome of glass they see - a God Divine.
So Doctors plug him full of dope, for if he drops to dust,
So will collapse their faith and hope, the whole combine will bust.
But say, Tovarich; hark to me . . . a secret I'll disclose,
For I did see what none did see; I know what no one knows...
Ballad of Lenin's Tomb, Robert Service
Lissen, if it's true that RWS wrote about Lenin, he would have been buried on
The Marge
of Lake Lebarge.
