Francis Bacon was a pig He grew to be very big And when he reached his maximum The man from the butcher's then did come, And hit him very hard on the head And Francis Bacon was then dead. The man then proceeded to Chop him up, first into two, Then he merrily carried on Till what had been Francis was all gone. He was now like a meaty jigsaw puzzle From his tail to his snouty snuzzle, Ham, pork and bacon he'd become Joints,and chops, and also some, Big pork sausages hung in loops, And his bones were boiled to make soups, Then the bones were sent off to, A factory where they made glue, So if a moral to this tale you seek - "You can eat all of a pig except its squeak."

Francis Bacon.
Francis Bacon was a pig He grew to be very big And when he reached his maximum The man from the butcher's then did come, And hit him very hard on the head And Francis Bacon was then dead. The man then proceeded to Chop him up, first into two, Then he merrily carried on Till what had been Francis was all gone. He was now like a meaty jigsaw puzzle From his tail to his snouty snuzzle, Ham, pork and bacon he'd become Joints,and chops, and also some, Big pork sausages hung in loops, And his bones were boiled to make soups, Then the bones were sent off to, A factory where they made glue, So if a moral to this tale you seek - "You can eat all of a pig except its squeak."
