The Chicken and the Road

Here is a nonsense ode, About why the chicken crossed the road, Why did the chicken cross the road? Why are its motives being questioned? Maybe the chicken had the best of intentions, Perhaps the road moved, eh, And the chicken stayed, Yes, the abstract road did not still remain, But, pure and simple, here's the nub, The chicken crossed its road to go to the pub!!!! Yes, that was its good intention, A day at the pub, beer inventions, Why are the chicken's motives questioned? Here is a nonsense ode, About that chicken crossing the road, Why did the chicken cross the road? Why are its motives questioned? Maybe the chicken had the best of intentions, Perhaps the road moved, eh, and the chicken stayed, Yes, the abstract road, still, did not remain, But, pure and simple, here's the nub, The chicken crossed the road, to go to the pub!!! Yes, that was its good intention, A day at the pub, beer inventions, Why are a chicken's motives questioned?
