Chorus
If I'm a fair judge of the life and habits of a man who will yet come to grief,
not long will this annoying ape
Cleigenes the tiny,
the nastiest bathman of all who rule the ash-mixed
polluted soda lye
and the Cimolian earth,
not long will he be around. But knowing this
he's no pacifist, lest he ever be stripped while
wandering drunk without his staff.
