I have a noxious goo that I shed
From glands on most of my body
Except there are no glands right behind my head.
Florida Scrub Jays know to decapitate my type
Carefully so they don't spoil their meal
They leave the rest of the body behind
It sounds like a very unpleasant ordeal!
(Note: Make sure you check out the article linked below, it's very interesting!)
