You give your best and they just take,

Hoping you won’t realize and wake:

It’s never how they said it would be,

They always pledge the best, you see-

But it never happens; the lesson is learned

As your heart- once again, heart gets burned,

Listen up, all you boys and girls-

Don't feed to the pigs your pearls.


They work to see how much you'll give,

They take from you if you're not selective,

Speaking promises and then renege,

Children, don't cast your pearls to pigs.

Oh all the good things they imply,

You can be sure it's a sham; a lie,

Sooner or later they'll give up the jig-

I've learned- don't cast your pearls to pigs.
