I won’t be telling you no lies

I will offer up no alibis

I don’t normally look at other guys

But, right there before my very eyes

I promise this is no whopper

But he was really a show stopper

Putting himself out on display

Before any of the girls could say

He made a point in his strut

The girls couldn’t keep their eyes shut

His tail feathers had all the eyes

And, yes, I know it wasn’t very wise

But I decided to slightly expose my shutter

And that’s how I caught this peacock strutter
