duty matches beauty

the music is gathered here from many places
its tone and impact differ every time
this is a proper mode for airs and graces

the working man elusive dollars chases
paying the price in pain and dirt and grime
the music is gathered here from many places

hard-working women put through their paces
by morons feel the dead weight of slime
this is a proper mode for airs and graces

and all the children with their dirty faces
with energy and not yet in their prime
the music is gathered here from many places

yet still we feel all have gone out to the races
to watch their horses which is not a crime
this is a proper mode for airs and graces

the fact which collective effort here displaces
is that some moments yet may be sublime
this is a proper mode for airs and graces
the music is gathered here from many places
