1. I cleared my throat at the gatekeeper's face
So he'd know I'm full, lest I'm denied

2. And told him my belly held a seed
Was there a cure that would provide?

3. He said a group has fooled me well
With this talk I'm hearing now

4. When I threatened my friends with it
And his feast drew close they wavered

5. They scurried with malicious intent
And because of them I was slapped
