Sometimes I wonder
If I’m destined to die
A martyr to some cause
On a post-apocalyptic battlefield

Or if I’m like the first Darrin
On Bewitched who apparently
Suffered back pain and that’s why
He was eventually recast

And I’ll never forget
How he looked with that oxygen mask
Around his face, a fragile old man
Yet staring at the camera with a smile

The last spark of the limelight gleaming
In his eyes
One last time
