They have been around
Know it all
Or say they do
Have their sycophants
Teetering on every word
What to do next
O faithful scribes
Tell us now
Keep us from a fateful move
Write for us the recipe
Keep us from the horrors
You preach about
Tell us which beer to drink
Ask the barmaid
She’ll remember
The one you liked so well
Last Tuesday
She, too is impressed
Knows you well
For what you are
Keeps quiet
Deserves your generous tips
You are overwhelming
All problems have vanished
As quickly as you point them out
You are charming
Enjoy your crowd
Even angels are listening
Waiting patiently
To take your souls
When the Master
Has decided that
He has had enough
He will place you
Where you deserve
Will not forget
Your favorite drinks
Enjoy
O wise ones
