A Lizard Is A Lizard Is A Lizard

A lizard will remain a lizard
Even if it grows a gizzard.

Even if it grows some fur,
A lizard's what it always were;

A lizard will be of that ilk
Despite evolving glands for milk;

A lizard with an upright stance--
Could that be different? Not a chance!

A lizard standing on two legs,
Who bears live young instead of eggs,

No matter what, you'll always find
It still belongs to lizardkind.

Hmmm....

At last I think I understand
Some crazy things about this land:

The audience for Bill O'Reilly?
Lizards prob'ly rate him highly.

The changing views of John McCain?
The answer's simple: Lizard Brain.

Paris? Brittney? Cher? Madonna?
Must look hot to some Iguana.

I think I'll stop here, if you wish--
It's time to feed my inner fish.
