the umpires speak

we set the bounds on what you want of life
you play the fool and do not care who knows
nor what the outcome of the early throws

no eager followers of drum or fife
this is the reason no one comes to blows
we set the bounds on what you want of life

beyond the wall is the great realm of strife
no garden for the lily or the rose
but not the kingdom of the waiting crows
we set the bounds on what you want of life
