    When I'm a man I'll be a butcher, if I can.

    124
    When I'm a man,
    I'll be a butcher, If I can ;
    I'll chop and skin and wield the axe
    Like minister who needs more tax.
    With brawn, not brains, I'll make the dibs.

    I'll stake my neck, Ill be unique.
    In this my cuts you'll gladly seek.
