Though you cannot escape Disappointment and care,The next best thing to do Is to learn how to when for lifes prizes Youre running, you trip,Get up, start again — Keep a stiff upper lip! Let your hands and your conscience Be honest and clean ;Scorn to touch or to think of The thing that is mean ;But hold on to the pure And the right with firm grip, Keep a Stiff Upper Lip ! And though hard be the task, Keep a stiff upper lip ! Through childhood, through manhood, Through life to the end,Struggle bravely and stand By your colors, my yield when you must; Never give up the ship,But fight on to the last With a stiff upper lip. 175
