....and is that an Apple Lisa?
(A good take on that would be that "alpha males" are just as obsolete as a 40 year old computer)

I'm a lumberjack, and I'm okay.
I sleep all night and I work all day.

I cut down trees
I skip and jump.
I like to press wild flowers.
I put on women's clothing
And hang around in bars.

I cut down trees. I wear high heels,
Suspendies, and a bra.
I wish I'd been a girlie,
Just like my dear Papa.

I loved this type of Monty Python humor years ago. (I suppose I still do.)

But, in these days of expanding pronoun usage, I'm not sure this could be shown on TV. It might not be considered harmless fun.
