Fortune Presents Gifts Not According to the Book |
| Fortune Presents Gifts Not According To The Books |
| Fortune Presents Gifts Not According To The Books |
| When you expect whistles, it’s flutes |
| When you expect flutes, it’s whistles. |
| What various paths are followed in distributing honors and possessions |
| She gives awards to some and penitents cloaks to others. |
| When you expect whistles, it’s flutes |
| When you expect flutes, it’s whistles |
| Sometimes she robs the chief goatherd af his cottage and goatpen |
| And to whomever she fancies the lamest goat is born to kids |
| When you expect whistles, it’s flutes |
| When you expect flutes, it’s whistles. |
| Because in a village a poor lad has stolen one egg. |
| He swings in the sun |
| While another gets away with a thousand crimes |
| When you expect whistles, it’s flutes |
| When you expect flutes, it’s whistles. |
