It's A
Pretty Good Plan
--To Forget
It!
If you see a
tall fellow
ahead of the
crowd,
A leader of
men
marching
fearless and proud,
And you know
of a tale
whose mere
telling aloud Would
cause this proud head to
in anguish be bowed, It's
a pretty good plan to
forget it! If
you know of a skeleton hidden
away In
a closet, and guarded and
kept from the day In
the dark, whose showing, whose
sudden display Would
cause grief and sorrow and
lifelong dismay-- It's
a pretty good plan to
forget it! If
you know of a spot in
the life of a friend, (We
all have such spots concealed,
world without end), Whose
touching his heartstrings would
play on and rend Till
the shame of its showing no
grieving could mend, It's
a pretty good plan to forget it! If
you know anything that
will darken the joy Of
a man or a woman, a
girl or a boy, That
will wipe out a smile or
the least way annoy A
fellow, or cause any
gladness to cloy, It's
a pretty good plan to
forget it! Author
