Fools who prophesy—races and Tophets—

Bigger fools who believe in prophets;

Fools who quarrel, and fools who quack;

In fact, there are all sorts of fools in the pack,

Fools fat, thin, short, and tall;

But of all sorts of fools, the fool with a gun

(Who points it at someone—of course, "in fun"—

And fools around till chance murder is done)

Is the worsest fool of them all!
