What would you take if…
I’ll let you steal
From a dainty queen?
You’d take her gold embroidered quilt?
You can, you can!

What would you take if…
I’ll let you steal
From a wealthy governor?
You’d take his heavy silver statue?
You can, you can!

What would you take if…
I’ll let you steal
From the fat taxman?
You’d take his thick ornamented purse?
You can, you can!

What would you take if…
I’ll let you steal
From me?
You’d take my warm wool coat?
You can, you can!

I’d let you steal
From anyone including me,
But, I won’t let you steal
From the almost vacant plate of a starved child
No, you can’t, I won’t let you!
