The Female of the Species

The Female of the Species.

  • Now, the lad from Wikitoria may be horrible and sleek,
  • For some are really truly fierce, while some are queerly meek.
  • But the female of the species on the slightest provocation
  • Gets so awfully hot and bothered that she burns her insulation.
  • Now the lad from Wikitoria in the heat of his debating
  • May pass remarks that no one else would think were elevating.
  • But the female of the species, in her frenzied oratory
  • Will say a lot that goes beyond the bounds of common story.
  • Now the guys I knew at 'Varsity, when they dined "au cafeteria,"
  • Quite often wished the meal was just a little bit more "beerier."
  • But the female of the species when she felt a little frisky,
  • Could be heard complaining loudly that there wasn't any whisky.
  • The sturdy men from "up the hill" who play for Senior A
  • May in a heated moment indulge in bloody fray.
  • But the female of the species uses claws and tooth and nail.
  • For the Female of the Species is more deadly than the Male.
