and So Is Man.

The rooster, as you may have
heard,
Is an ungainly, awkward bird,
Whose looks aud manners are
absurd.
(And so is man,
He struts and crows for all he's
worth,
And acts as though he owned
the earth,
But he provokes a deal of mirth.
(And so does man.
The rooster is extremely tough;
He's splendid at a game OF bluff,
And don't know when he's had
enough.
(Nor does a man.
To stuff his craw is his delight;
He gobbles everything in sight,
And never gives the hen bite.
Gust like a man,
Sometimes he's in a generous
mood,
And when he finds a scrap of
food,
The hens in his domains are
wooed To beat the band.
But though he tries to play the
gent,
He doesn't fool them worth a
cent.
His object is too evident
(And SO is man's.)
He loves to sit upon the fence
And try to make big pretense-
But hasn't got a grain of sense.
(Nor has a man..
He never matches any chicks,
But gets his harem in a fix.
In fact he's almost good for nix
(And so is man.
