R: Gravedigger, when you dig my grave

2. Muriel Stonewall, 1903 to 1954
   She lost both of her babies 
   in the second great war

   Your own children are lowered in the ground
   I mean you should never have to bury your babies

3. Little Mikey Carson, 67 to 75
   He rode his bike like the devil
   Until the day he died
   When he grows up he wants to be
   Mister Vertigo on the flying trapeze
   Oh, 1940 to 1992
