| As a terrible plague to men | B |
| They say we're the root of all evil | C |
| And repeat it again and again | B |
| Of war and quarrels and bloodshed | D |
| All mischief be what it may | E |
| And pray then why do you marry us | F |

| If she hides then they all keep staring | I |
| Until she looks out again | B |
