The milling, the tilling, the toiling, the killing,
for nothing more than a shilling, a shilling.
Carelessly sowing, selfishly growing,
fearing the gale of a harsh wind blowing, blowing.

The reaping, the creeping, the weeping, the keeping,
though the piles are heaping, heaping
Keep on going, never knowing,
that your spoiling is showing, showing.
