-3  3  -2*   -1 -1  -1
By my faith, but I think
  -1   -1  -2* -1 -2*  -3
You’re all mak-ers of bulls
 3    -3    3    2   2     2   2
With your brains in your bree-ches
 2    3  -2*  3     -4
Your arse in your skulls
-3   -2*  -1   -1  -1   -1
Get home with your mus-kets
-1  -2* -1  -2*   -3
And put up your swords
-2*  3   2   2     2
And look in your books 
-3   3   -2* -1  -1   -1
For the mean-ing of words
-3  -4   4*  -5 -3  -3
You see now, my hon-eys
-3   -4    4*   -5  -3  -3
How much you’re mis-tak-en
-3  -5   4*  -4 -3   -2*
For Con-cord by dis-cord
-2*  3 -2* 2   -1  -1
Can nev-er be beat-en
