[ WP ] On Nov. 4th 1909 a pig took to the skies for the first time , making everything that was ever followed by `` when pigs fly ! '' now true and valid . It 's now 2016 , describe how different the world is .

The thing we never really knew 
 Before pigs learned to fly 
 Was human bones they loved to chew, 
 And human flesh to fry. 
 
 But though they always had a taste 
 For any human fare, 
 The pen and sty ( where they were based ) 
 Made human rather rare. 
 
 But come the year one-nine-o-nine, 
 One pig looked to the sky; 
 And baconwings spread out behind 
 Its back and let it fly. 
 
 Well Porky, as the pig was named, 
 Flew quick across the land, 
 And showed all other pigs the same 
 Technique, while making plans. 
 
 For Porky was a clever fiend, 
 And knew that from a height, 
 A diving pig would not be seen; 
 There would n't be a fight! 
 
 And when a pig de-elevates, 
 Velocity renewed, 
 Then hooves that so accelerate 
 Can split a skull in two. 
 
 So still they hungered for the blood 
 Of men upon their snout, 
 And sick of being in the mud, 
 They started up the bout. 
 
 Now widely did the pigs unite 
 To butcher *real* swine, 
 As droves of deadly porcine flight 
 Enshadowed humankind. 
 
 And down they dived from rosy skies, 
 Their enemies to meet, 
 And slowly faded awful cries 
 As blood ran through the streets. 
 
 The pigs they gorged and gobbled down 
 The guts and brains and all 
 Of every man, while every town 
 And city did it fall. 
 
 So Porky's pigs, they ruled the lot 
 While humans, not extinct, 
 We're only bred to fill the pot- 
 Like bellies of the pigs.
