A person would scarcely believe it possible)
How very little a man can live upon
From birth until he reaches the enlisting age.
For first he has to be born, of course,
And that takes time,—makes us some trouble too—
But it’s a simple matter on the whole,
And not expensive: not at all expensive:
You see, the women are the ones that attend to this
And they work cheap.
They pour men from their bodies.
