I remember that one from my parents' radio station
From memory:
"We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun"
and
"Goodbye my friend it's hard to die... when the birds are singing in the sky."
*puke*
Working there has scarred me for life.

I actually have that one on a '45 record
And the flip side is "Put The Bone In", which is even weirder! It's about a woman trying to feed her dog, and the cupboard is bare, apparently.

Can you find the lyrics for that?
I can't, but I found this along the way: [link|http://featuresblogs.chicagotribune.com/entertainment_popmachine/2006/05/the_joys_of_dep.html|The joy and fun of depressing music]
Then I found this. [link|http://www.gearchange.org/descriptions/Terry%20Jacks%20-%20Seasons%20In%20The%20Sun.html|The Truck Driver's Gear Change Hall Of Shame]: musically documenting the world's most unnecessary key changes

Some.
Turn your speakers down before clicking - there's a short "Everybody Dance Now" audio clip.

Cheers,
Scott.

Still looking, but found this:
MTV NEWS: Kurt, you sang "Seasons in the Sun?"
KURT: Did I sing? Yes, I did. I don't know the words. One of the only singles I can remember from my childhood that I used to cry to.
KRIST: What's the best lyric in there?
KURT: It's such an emotional song.
KRIST: There's like the best lyric...
KURT: (sings) Good-bye papa it's hard to die.
KRIST: The stars on the beach were... I forget how it goes
KURT: (sings) The stars on the beach...no, the starfish on the beach where the star's out of reach.
KRIST: Wow.
DAVE: What do you mean?
PAT: The wow really made it...
KRIST: Don't you get it?
KURT: I don't know. I don't know... All I know I know is there's a better song on the B-side of that single. "Put the Bone In It."
DAVE: Put the bone in it... (laughs) It's about a guy's dog gets hit by a car and they ask him to put the bone in the grave with the dog.
EDIT: I was mistaken though, she doesn't want to feed the dog, she wants to bury him with his bone cause he's dead. It's been years since I listened to the '45.

And this:
From a site:
[link|http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/1276195/posts|http://www.freerepub...hat/1276195/posts]
I had the 45 single of Seasons In The Sun by Terry Jacks when I was a kid. On the flip-side was a song titled 'Put The Bone In'. Its lyrics started out like this...
"Put the bone in, she asked him at the store
'cause my doggie got run over by a car"
EDIT: Found some more of the lyrics... maybe I'll track it down piece by piece?
[link|http://www.websitetoolbox.com/tool/post/bsnpubs/vpost?id=135866&trail=45|http://www.websiteto...d=135866&trail=45]
EXCERPT BELOW:
"Put the bone in, she begged him once more"
"The meat from the pork is sweet, give the bone from the pork meat to me"

P.S. Still haven't found ALL the lyrics, but still looking.

Here's a drunken parody of it...
Complete with guitar chords. ;) I may have to actually LISTEN to the '45 to get the ACTUAL lyrics.
[link|http://www.guitaretab.com/s/soul-asylum/17895.html|http://www.guitareta...asylum/17895.html]
EXCERPT BELOW:
This is from the bonus track in the Soul Asylum re-release of Hang Time.
I don't know of anyone wants it, but I've taken so much I felt I needed
to give something back.
Put The Bone In
by T. Jacks
As performed by (a quite drunk) Soul Asylum
(It's just that kind of song :) )
transcribed by Ira Bryant
(chorus)
F G C F C
Put the bone in, she yelled at the store
F G C F C
'Cause my doggies been hit by a car
F G C C/B C/A
And I do wanna bring him home something
F G C F C
Put the bone in, she yelled out once more
C F C F C
Because the meat from the pork is so sweet
F G C F C
And the bone from the pork meat to be
F G
Put the bone in, she begged him
C C/B C/A
as she paced across the floor
F G C F C
Put the bone in, she yelled out once more
They repeat the chorus around four times.
Unless your drunk, I don't suggest this.
There you go.
\t\t\tIra Bryant

The real lyrics to "Put The Bone In"
I had planned to listen to my '45 on the 19th and post this, but the storm changed my plans. So here it is now, finally. :)
*************************
Put The Bone In by Terry Jacks
Put the bone in she asked him at the store
Cause my doggie\ufffds been hit by a car
And I do want to bring him home something
Put the bone in she begged him once more
The meat from the pork is sweet
Give the bone from the pork meat to me
Put the bone in she begged him
As she paced around the floor
Put the bone in she yelled out once more
Put the bone in she asked him at the store
Cause my doggie\ufffds been hit by a car
And I do want to bring him home something
Put the bone in she begged him once more
********************************
Now my question is, is the dog actually dead, or just wounded and dying and she wants to give him a bone before he goes? ;)
