Transcript
Sister young man is 103. Yes, the 103 is he. And his real cold storage meat from his head right to his feet. His dead body won't lie down. Now she's his Juliet and he's her Romeo, though his real name is Septimus Brown.
From his soul romance has fled. Still she likes his old bald head. He's dead but he won't fly down. He won't fly down but he won't fly. At a movie show once, full of passion and love, he said be Missy Steffy much brown.
And although he'd got the crumb, he said, Bump me darling, Bump me. He's dead, but he won't lie down. Now Septimus Brown has a large family. It's the biggest one for miles around. He's had children by the score, but he thinks he'd like some more.
He's dead but he won't lie down. He won't. Now late last night in the old cemetery with all the pretty tombstones round. Mr. Sado do behave.
Then they both fell in a grave. He's dead but he won't lie down. Oh, nothing is lying down now.
That was the 60-second preview
