My friend, did you know this?
Every wife is a padlock in a home
handed over the home by trust
to keep safe and secure from loot
and report any attempted robbery
My friend did you know this?
few report attempted robbery
often padlock becomes looter
Very pads keep doors locked
thieves often break into chambers
and grab the safes down there
full of pearls, gold, honey, cakes
What I know you do know too
but why do thieves break padlocks?
Simple. For every door is master key
for willing opener, willing opening
The husband it is true is a watchdog
guarding straws, honey pots, beers
in every home they live and bark
My friend did you know this?
listen and reflect on this message
Often as they bark and run around
they use straws to drink honey, beers
surely looted from unwatchful owners
mindless they carry some away in joy
Padlock, watchdog, wife, husband;
expel master keys, shun baits, be a wall
