"Love"
There's the wonderful love of a beautiful maid,
and the love of a staunch true man.
There's the love of a baby that's unafraid,
all have existed since time began.

But the most wonderful love, the Love of Loves,
even greater than the love for Mother,
is the intimate, tenderest, passionate love...
of one dead drunk for another."

- Variation -

"The wonderful love of a beautiful maid,
The love of a staunch true man,
The love of a baby unafraid
Has existed since time began;
But the greatest love, the love of loves,
Even greater than that of a mother,
Is the tender, passionate, infinite love
Of one drunken bum for another."
