World One Hundred
If a man shall lack a shoe
Who shall tell him what to do?
Neither king nor kangaroo
If a man shall lack a foot
Who shall daub his face with soot?
Assuming that his head stays put
If a man shall lack a toe
Who shall dare to call him foe?
Only one who stands below
If a man shall lack a leg
Who shall teach him how to beg?
How to skin or suck an egg?
If a man shall lack a tongue
How shall human praise be sung
Barring use of aqualung?
