Man Vs the Cat

by Mike O'Brien
(Christchurch New Zealand)

A man will work to earn his keep
A Cat will sleep then eat
A man will settle for beans on toast
A Cat will demand a treat

A man will have many bills to pay
A Cat will have nine years credit
A man will use many words in life
A Cat will meow untill you've fed it

A man will help out and do his bit
A cat will have well trained staff
A man will have tools to get things done
A Cat will get things done on it's behalf

A man will need coffee to stay awake
A Cat will NEVER drink it
A man will say he's head of the house
A Cat will grin and let him think it.
