Keeping Us Together 

Neil Sedaka, as you've read,

Is only very lately dead.

He had an easy-going mode,

And though his career had ebbed and flowed,

His songs remained benign and sunny,

And even, on occasion, funny,

(And yes, of course, they made him money),

But even tabloids seemed to lack a

Reason to attack Sedaka.
