The Rightful Heir

Maybe it is time, old man, that you declare

The rightful heir to your property

It's all written out, I just need your name

On the dotted line, oh, won't you please?

Maybe it is time, old man, that you declare

The rightful heir to your property

It's all written out, I just need your name

On the dotted line, oh, won't you please?

Fancy clothes and jewelry

Beyond my wildest dreams

While all that awaits me

I better have myself a think

What can I do to expedite

This process, you ask me?

Well, it takes not much to execute

His final deed to me

Oh, a few drops in his drink

Or a needle in his sleep

Oh, so many things to scheme

Must not forget to weep
