NOT THANKFUL, by                    
First Line: I think the only person that
Last Line: And really he's not much to blame.
Subject(s): Holidays; November; Pilgrimages & Pilgrims; Thanksgiving Day; Turkey


I THINK the only person that
Is sorry that the Pilgrims came,
Is our great turkey, bold and fat,
And really he's not much to blame.

What if they sailed across the blue,
And found a land for great and small,
Perhaps it's lots of fun for you—
He never sees the fun at all!

So he's not thankful that they came—
And really he's not much to blame.
