cheating death

Jacob and Marley
Unlike that miser Scrooge
Have never understood the message
Alf Garnet, in his wisdom
'Til' Death Us Do Part'
Couldn't avoid death and marriage
But for my bloody neighbour
Arthur Timmins,
90 years isn't enough
He's avoided the Grim Reaper
Like a fucking Houdini
Escaping a pair of handcuffs!
