Phil, you’re famous far and wide
You peek your furry mug outside
To say if winter still will blow
For six more weeks: will there be snow?
Now Mother Hen ain’t one to tell
A pro a subject he knows well
But your approach (it seems) is flawed
‘Cause don’t you think that it is odd
That when you see your shadow, guy
Which means the sun is in the sky
That’s s’posed to mean that Spring is late
When it should mean an early date?
Look up, oh hog and see the sun
The grass is green and winter’s done
There are no snowflakes in the air
(Although it’s true the trees go bare.)
A shadow, Phil, should mean that Spring
Is closer still, if anything
So change your forecast, be a pal
And raise this chicken’s poor morale!
