I arose and Marigold lay down with Curious Iris Cherry gave to Victor her prudence and her virus For the sake of purity I can recall the time and place Between Wisdom and Murder she gave up her immaculate face [Chorus] My poor belated chastity fell foul of grown up games, With false and lovely modesty I can recall the names I`ll miss In the particle of me that cares for this I betrayed those little atoms with a kiss Patience has her virtue still but every grace must have its price I through some felicity may spin a tale of constant vice I took my better nature out, drowned it in the babbling stream Took the blossom of my youth and blew it all to smithereens [Chorus] And if you still don`t like my song then you can just go to hell I don`t care if I`m right or wrong or if my typewriter can spell But I cannot promise you I`ve said "Goodbye" to childish things There`s still some pretty insults left and such sport in threatening [Chorus] And for the sake of clarity They are "Faith", "Hope", and "Charity" In the particle of me that cares for this I betrayed those little atoms with a kiss
