The Lyrics
Legacies
Are the hallmarks of humanities
Hist'ry books light up like Grand Marques
Oh, lets bequeath our Legacies
When we cease
We undergo metamorphoses
And our legends perform timeless deeds
Oh, Legacies start when we cease
When's our time to go?
We don't know - we cannot say
We can tarry on
Through the sconce of Legacies
Legacies
Gild the name of fam'ly dynasties
Who commision great philanthropies
Oh, lets beseech these Legacies
Who needs Robin Hood?
When we could ask 'pretty please'
Let's give something back
And shellac our Legacies
Legacies,
Shine the best when helping nobodies
Who can't be A-List celebrities
Oh, lets reach out with Legacies
Mm mm mm mm mm mm mm...
Are the hallmarks of humanities

Oh, Legacies start when we cease

We don't know - we cannot say
We can tarry on
Through the sconce of Legacies
Legacies
Gild the name of fam'ly dynasties
Who commision great philanthropies

When we could ask 'pretty please'

Legacies,
Shine the best when helping nobodies
Who can't be A-List celebrities
Oh, lets reach out with Legacies

When you are gone the public will make a legend of you. Think JFK.
