woodchuck
How much wood could a woodchuck chuck
If a woodchuck could chuck wood?
Well, as much wood as a woodchuck could chuck
If a woodchuck could indeed chuck wood.
Right? Not quite.
Let's assume our Woodchuck has good luck
And trucks through the crux of his woodchuck adulthood
In order for our Woodchuck to chuck as much wood
As a woodchuck could chuck,
This Woodchuck would chuck wood from daybreak 'til the owls wake
And would have to tolerate a deluxe influx of woodchuck toothaches.
Now look,
I'm by the book.
Throb through the job by hook or by crook.
But no rest? Come on. Talk about stressed!
I'd sooner request to be a guest during a Ray Charles road test.
But I digress...
The question shouldn't be:
"How much wood could a woodchuck chuck
If a woodchuck could chuck wood?"
Any good woodchuck would use his wood chucking talents
To find the work/life balance for a good woodchuck livelihood
But, you see, there's something we've missed.
The question should be:
"How much wood should a woodchuck chuck?"
'Til he can call it quits, and exist in bliss
By striking bit by bit struck
From the pits and the midst
Of his woodchuck bucket list.
To which the answer is:
Only as much wood as a woodchuck thinks it should chuck.
Because really, who gives a... care?
You know, like, who cares?
