Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEAE DFAGHIAI JKIKLMAM NODOPDNDThe bad boy of Europe | A |
He stands in dire disgrace | B |
Crying too loud his innocence | C |
While guilt grins from his face | B |
The gangster and the racketeer | D |
Earth's honest folk disown | E |
And the bad boy of Europe | A |
He walks his way alone | E |
- | |
In cynical dishonour | D |
The world is not yet lost | F |
As the dull boy of Europe | A |
Discovers to his cost | G |
Something is let to decency | H |
And something of fair play | I |
As the shameless boy of Europe | A |
Learns to his vague dismay | I |
- | |
Tho' nations yet be governed | J |
By chiefs too worldly wise | K |
There runs an unclean pathway | I |
From which men turn their eyes | K |
Defined by laws unwritten | L |
There yet remains The Code | M |
But the bad boy of Europe | A |
Treads the forbidden road | M |
- | |
Never 'mid Christian nations | N |
Shall might be counted right | O |
And murder stays foul murder | D |
Ever in just men's sight | O |
The wide world shall disown them | P |
Who own that guilt stained crew | D |
Whose acts belie their mouthings | N |
Whose mouthings ring untrue | D |
