Explore "Heads and Tails" by Franklin P. Adams on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
If a single man is studious and quiet, people say / He is grouchy, he is old before his time; / If he's frivolous and flippant, if he treads the primrose way, / Then they mark him for a wild career of crime.
If a man asserts that So-and-So is beautiful or sweet, / He is daffy on the proposition, Girl; / If he's weary in the evening and he keeps his subway seat, / He's immediately branded as a churl.
