Poem
This is the story of the first Thanksgiving The way things really took place You remember, there were a bunch of turkeys And Pilgrims from the human race Now the story you've heard all your life Is not exactly how things went down See, the turkeys were on the Mayflower And they wanted this land they found Now the Indians and Pilgrims owned this land And they put up a terrible fight They fought with all that was in them And it was such a horrible sight Now the Indian chief wanted to powwow But the turkey chief said no Cause the Indians had "ruffled his feathers" That's just a figure of speech, you know Anyway, see, the Pilgrims and Indians Had put together a mighty force They would invite those turkeys to dinner You guessed it, they'd be the main course Well, the turkeys accepted their invitation And the peace was finally progressing Until they got closer to the camp site And started smelling the dressing Now, the turkeys were mighty suspicious Of this truce that they had struck See, for the Pilgrims had told them That the main course was duck Now, the Indians started feeling guilty About the way they did those birds So they killed off all the Pilgrims And gave them half of their buffalo herds The Indians and turkeys were friends at last And they decided to share the terrain Til, out of nowhere, came a man named Butterball Who owned a supermarket chain
