AMO, AMAS, AMAT
ACT ONE
Scene One
Heard of how they box and wrestle
And excel in every sport,
You cannot surpass
Their balls of brass---
But why is everyone so short?
Oh, the things they’ve built in
Britain,
And the stuff they’ve built in
Gaul!
All the hippodromes,
And palatial homes---
But why is everyone so small?
See them strut and parade
In their silver tunics with their
golden belts!
I wonder if I’ll make the grade---
Now I am not the tallest
Gaulist
But I seem to tower over everyone
else.
I’ve heard all about their orgies
And the ways that they cavort
And how you can screw
What appeals to you---
But why is everyone so short?

Jove and Juno,
Mars, Minerva---
Their exploits are all absurd---
Those who swallow
The tales of Apollo
Have got to have the brains of
a bird.
