When the gender isn't known, why must it ever be,
  That the person spoken of is always called a HE?
Though women's lib has tried to change what Adam must have started;
  When we examine certain words it makes us feel downhearted.

CHAIR PERSON is a name we're called, the word's a current one, 
  But the gender isn't changed, the word still ends in SON.
So then we call ourselves FEMALES, it really isn't fair;
  Look closely at the spelling and the MALE is ever there.

We'll be ladies then you say, but that is just as bad,
  The male idea still is there for that word starts with LAD.
Well, I'll call myself a HUMAN, ho, what a bitter pill!
  No matter what I call myself that word is with us still.

Althoguh I do not like the word, I'll call myself a MADAM.
   Oh, no!  Here we go again, we're back to that word ADAM!
