He bragged to his drinking buddies
How he always controlled his wife.
How he had been the one in charge
Throughout their entire married life.

He said, “She came to me on hands and knees,
After our argument last night.
To see your wife crawling towards you
Is not a very pretty sight!”

“What did she say” His best friend asked,
He mumbled, “She said, Howard,
Come out from underneath that bed!
You sniveling little coward.”
