Putting On Pants One Leg At a Time

He Puts His Pants on One Leg at a Time By Elton Camp This is a flip expression that I’ve always hated For to demean somebody’s success it is related This bit of conventional wisdom is made known Often about the president or a king on his throne But for any ridiculers, I have a starling bit of news Pants can go on two legs at the time if you choose In my case, since first wearing pants I did begin I stand them up and with both legs jump right in Or flat on the floor a fellow could decide to lie Raise legs, pull pants on both he could easily try So you mockers, why not lay this old saying to rest Men can put on their pants in the way they see best
