"If you could see your ancestors

all standing in a row,

would you be proud of them or not,

or don't you really know?

Some strange discoveries are made

in climbing family trees,

and some of them you know do not

particularly please.

If you could see your ancestors

all standing in a row,

there might be some of them perhaps,

you wouldn't care to know.

But here's another question 

which requires a different view.

If you could meet your ancestors,

would they be proud of you?"
