 (Intro)
 (Verse 1)
Sit  down my sons, I’ve  something to say
What  my father told me on his dying day
And  now to my own sons, I pass  this along
 For my time  is at hand, and soon I’ll be gone
I’ve  tried to teach you what’s right  and what’s wrong
 Be upright,  be honest, be brave and be strong
 Be kind  and be true to the good  friends you’ve made
 And never turn  down a chance to get laid!
 Do the Young  ones, the old ones,
 The hot  ones, the cold ones
 The scags,  the hags, the free  and the paid
 Do the rich  ones the poor ones
 The drunk  on the floor  ones
 If they’re ugly  son pull down the shade
 And never turn  down a chance  to get laid!
 (Verse 2)
 Oh boys  now I lay here my body  all broke
 I pray  you’ll be heedin’ these last words I spoke
 As I  meet my maker I clearly  now see
 Why all  of your mothers are so pissed off at me
 So, do the big  ones, the small ones
 The short  ones, the tall ones
 The street  walking hooker, the cooker  of pain
 Do the flat  chested screamer
 The big breasted  big beamers
 Never mind  if she’s fertile or spayed
 And never turn  down a chance  to get laid!
 Do the sleazy,  the easy
 The smelly,  the greasy
 The smutty,  the slutty, the chubby  ones too
 Do the classic  two bagger
 The two legged  tail wager
 And boys  you’ll know when you’re through
 When you’ve found  one you love  who loves who loves you
 But until you do
 Do the black  ones the white ones
 The loose  ones the tight ones
 The freaks  do the geeks, the uniques  and all the antiques
 Do the nasty  and the mean, the obese  the obscene
 But never turn  down a chance…
 Always go  for romance
 Never turn  down a chance…
 Always go  for the pants
 And never turn  down a chance  to get laid!
 (Outro)
