First day of my life, was stuck in a nest, Although rather warm, 'Twas hard to take rest. For Poor mother chicken, Felt compelled to hatch me. But Stuffy and squished, I so want to be free! At time I hatched open, and what a surprise! Two legs at the bottom, and the top-- two black eyes! And soon I got fat, bigger than friend Cow, Then one awful day, they said "We want you now!" Why to eat me for dinner, Those nasty old humans! I wish I were thinner, for my sake, to fool them! And right then I cried, for they wanted me fried! |
