Advice.
(for a lad, as he sets out, on his journey through life)



Never kiss a *******, just pay the lass and thank ‘er.
Never try to work your passage, on a foreign tanker.

The lass could give you something that might not go away.
Your ship-mates may be gamblers, who’d rob you, as you play.

But more importantly, by far, wherever you drop anchor.
Never trust a politician, clergyman nor banker!
