Let us do the fair thing,

The right thing and the true.

‘Tis the only possible thing

That we can ever do.

 

It’s better to give than to take, they say.

It’s better to love than to hate.

It’s better to do it now, they say,

Than wait until it’s too late.

 

How the devil’s it done – do they tell?

With hate in the heart how to love?

With evil thoughts in the mind – do they tell?

How to get help from above?

 

What's to be done with greed - do they say?

With a full and lustful heart?

Is there any possible way

To purify the tart?
