Carnival

In this carnival each one wears a mask

the demons know on who to laugh

The thin are fat the fat are thin

the fallen sinner has no sin

In this carnival the poor rule the estate

the rich their peasants rule their fate

The holy man are now whores

the whores with piety do bore

In this carnival thinkers are unsure

while cretins write books by the score

The angels in the bowls of hell

the healthy now are all unwell
