Fortune presents gifts not according to the book
Fortune presents gifts not according to the book
When you expect whistles, it's flutes
When you expect flutes, it's whistles
What various paths are followed in distributing honours and possessions
She gives awards to some and penitent's cloaks to others
When you expect whistles, it's flutes
When you expect flutes, it's whistles
Sometimes she robs the chief goatherd of his cottage and goat pen
And to whomever she fancies, the lamest goat has born two kids
When you expect whistles, it's flutes
When you expect flutes, it's whistles
ย
Because in a village a poor lad has stolen one egg
He swings in the sun, and another gets away with a thousand crimes
When you expect whistles, it's flutes
When you expect flutes, it's whistles
