Analysis of Young Mickey McGoon



Fell in a swoon,
In love with a bearded lady
Lifting weights to the skies.
He regarded her thighs,
Her torso, her tatoos and more so
So he said so thus to himself
Beyond broilings and bakings
And vegetable making,
She has all a man could want:
A beard! A mustache! And muscles!
