Let's Take A 'Butchers' ( Look )

Let's  Take  A  'Butchers'  ( Look )

A man walked into a butcher's shop, asked for meat,
he pointed to some produce on an overhead shelf,
the butcher said: 'I'm sorry but you can't have that,
the steaks are too high,' halted in his tracks poor chap.

HaveĀ  you ever been inside an abbatoir - if you do,
you'll never eat meat again, I have not done so,
then there are vegans, no meat, chicken or fish,
delete alcohol, nicotine, sex and flashy cars.

Not so much left - stick to your nut cutlet, shame,
there's always the sunshine and chirping birds;
that chap who didn't get the steak finally found
some porterhouse and bought a bottle of beaujolais.

Defiance - the chap bought a bottle of after-shave
for $200, took a dab and then threw it in the bin.
