It's just the company they keep (The light side)

Appletree

The cat that kills for pleasure

does not worry, curse or weep.

He tells his fawning 'master'

It's just the company I keep.

 

The crow that pecks the lambs eyes

never loses any sleep.

He tells the grim faced farmer,

It's just the company I keep.

 

The fox that raids the hen coop,

he slumbers long and deep.

He tells the mounted huntsman,

It's just the company I keep.

 

The flea that feeds on blue blood,

is as happy with the cheap.

He finds another warm bed.

Any company he'll keep.
