Behold it is Christmas
Everybody: the young, youth and the old alike
All exhibit signs of happiness
Everybody loves Christmas except the chicken
To the chicken, there is only one reality
whenever the big red and white man appears;
their population begins to dwindle
EXCEPT THE CHICKEN
Behold it is Christmas
Everybody: the young, youth and the old alike
Goes out to make merry
Everybody hates being in a crowded place except the chicken
To the chicken, being in an overpopulated coop
is just part of the Christmas deal
After all, no one except the Vegetarian cared
MERCY CHRISTMAS
Behold it is Christmas
Everybody: the young, youth and the old alike
wants to be picked out for dinner
The chicken is picked and his brother
says to him ”Mercy Christmas, rest well
in the stomach of the whale
To the Chicken, Christmas is like Easter
But wait a minute, are they spared in Easter?
CEREMONIAL BATH
Behold it is Christmas
Everybody: the young, youth and the old alike
Enjoy the tender meat of the chicken
Everybody avoids the knife but not the chicken
To the chicken, there is only one reality;
they are going to have their first ”ceremonial” bath
the bath that leads to the stomach of the whale.
