(GLUTTONY)
...But Anna is very sensible.
She'll see that a contract is a contract.
She will say: You can eat in Louisiana, Anna.
Croissants! Cutlets! Asparagus! Chicken!
And the little yellow honey-cakes!
Think of our house in Louisiana!
It's already rising, floor by floor!
Therefore, hold on to yourself.
Gluttony brings disaster.
Hold on to yourself, Anna!
Gluttony brings disaster!
(LUST)
We found a man in Boston.
He paid well, and all for love.
I had my trouble with Anna,
For she loved someone else.
She paid him. All for love.
I often told her: If you're unfaithful,
You're onnly worth half as much.
One doesn't pay for such swine,
But for that which he reveres!
