*HAPPY THANKSGIVING, GOBBLE GOBBLE*

I'm protesting... yes it's me, your next catch!
Why me? I'm innocent, Gobble Gobble, you turkey!
I live in the United States of America, same as you,
So what happened to the Land of the Free?
Gobble, Gobble...

Now think twice before you take that second bite,
Just cause I'm a bird, Mother Nature is not at fault!
Take me to court, with dozens of Turkeys In The Straw,
The judge will bring forth my innocence,
And my Gobble Gobble shall be set free!

Okay, so you like my breasts... Shame on you!!!
And you think by eating my wings, you'll be able to fly?
What? Did you not know a turkey cannot fly high?
And as you tale the leap, take that grin off your face,
The least you can do is show some appreciation!

Alright, alright... at least I tried...

Bon appetite to you and yours!
Be good to one another,
Enjoy gathering around the table,
With family, friends, and neighbors,
And please remember...
Give thanks for all the blessings!




HAPPY THANKSGIVING to all you turkeys!
Gobble Gobble
Hey... feeling a wee bit guilty? hee hee
