OH CLUCK

The turkey awoke, heard knives sharply clickin'
then muttered a phrase that made my blood quicken
said I'm sorry to say
that just for today
I'll be identifying as a plump chicken

No, even a duck is out of luck on TG. He could have said a ham...but then the actors gild would claim he was promoting violence against performers – perhaps a leech? – oh no, politicians would have the FBI raid his nest – can’t win some days. Good one, John.
