good thoughts"

in  spite
Cmaj7 F    Cmaj7
 of righteousness is
 F  Cmaj7     F
Not      the kind
Cmaj7    F     Cmaj7     F        Cmaj7
    of thoughts     in spite of greatness.
F  Cmaj7  F Cmaj7     F  Cmaj7   F   Cmaj7
Often   now     the State     is advocation.
F  Cmaj7  F   Cmaj7  F   Cmaj7   F   Cmaj7
If    we form     a power   of recognition.

Forget loss and perfect advocation
If it drops or stays in convocation

All we praise is all we want in commerce
All we praise is parties, foreign commerce
Entertain ideas of great communion
Shelter not materials in union
(All we praise is not the kind of commerce
That's the right solution!)

All good thoughts is not the act of doing
What we want but what we should. Improving
Properties, ideas, a woman's pleasure
Is empowered by love, a perfect measure!
(All we praise is not the kind of commerce
That's the right solution!)
