Every day since Tom was born,
Farmer John fed Tom some corn,
Young Tom he grew by leaps and bounds,
Putting on those corn fed pounds.

Farmer John to Tom would say,
Soon will come Thanksgiving Day,
It will be a feast for all,
Now eat your corn my butterball.

Then came November, the chill of fall,
Farmer John to Tom did call,
Come here my star, my butterball,
All fat and sassy, a feast for all.

The chopping block, epiphany,
Tom realized the feast was he.

Gulp.
