Lyrics: Anon, probably the composer
Good statesmen need not only wit,
But Argus' eyes to see;
For here's a hit and there's a hit,
But where can you hit me?
This nought impairs their high renown
Tho', like true women's men,
They're in and out and up and down,
And in and out again.
Good statesmen need not only wit,
But Argus' eyes to see;
For here's a hit and there's a hit,
But where can you hit me?
This nought impairs their high renown
Tho', like true women's men,
They're in and out and up and down,
And in and out again.
