Lead me not into temptation,
Refrain from encouraging my slide
Into passages of wild abandon
With a subtle wink and nod.
Hold me to much higher standards
Than those to which you subscribe
Hypocrisy is all the rage, my dear
Executive orders well describe.
Sauce for the goose, gold for the gander
Don’t let them catch you weeping
Heads we lose; tails we’ve lost
Prayers are all past keeping.
