1
You saw sagacious Solomon
2
You know what came of him
3
To him complexities seems plain
4
He cursed the hour that gave birth to him
5
And saw everything was vain
6
How great and wise was Solomon
7
The world however didn't wait
8
But soon observed what followed on
9
It's wisdom that had brought him to this state
10
How fortunate the man with none
11
How fortunate the man with none
12
You saw courageous Caesar next
13
You know what he became
14
They defied him in his life
15
Then had him murdered just the same
16
And as they raised the fatal knife
17
How loud he cried, "You too my son"
18
The world however didn't wait
19
But soon observed what followed on
20
It's courage that had brought him to that state
21
How fortunate the man with none
22
How fortunate the man with none
23
You heard of honest Socrates
24
The man who never lied
25
They weren't so grateful as you'd think
26
Instead the rulers fixed to have him tried
27
And handed him the poisoned drink
28
How honest was the people's noble son
29
The world however didn't wait
30
But soon observed what followed on
31
It's honesty that brought him to that state
32
How fortunate the man with none
33
How fortunate the man with none
34
Here you can see respectable folk
35
Keeping to Gods own laws
36
So far He hasn't taken heed
37
You who sit safe and warm indoors
38
Help to relieve out bitter need
39
How virtuously we had begun
40
The world however didn't wait
41
But soon observed what followed on
42
It's fear of God that brought us to that state
43
How fortunate the man with none
44
How fortunate the man with none
