When you're criticizing others, And are finding, here and there, A fault or two to speak of Or a weakness you can tear: When you're blaming some one's weakness, Or accusing some of pelf - It's time that you went out To take a walk around yourself.
There's lots of human failures In the average of us all, And lots of grave short comings In the short ones and the tail; But when we think of evils Men should lay upon the shelves, It's time we all went out To take a walk around ourselves.
We need so often in this life This balancing of scales, This seeing how much in us wins And how much in us fails; But before you judge another - Just to lay him on the shelf - It would be a splendid plan To take a walk around yourself.
