Where's Professor Read (American Graffiti) when you need him? Does  anyone 
remember this or have a source?

“Here I sit, cheeks a-flexin’, giving birth to another Texan”  (bathroom 
graffiti)
 
"Here I sit, cheeks a-flexin’, giving birth to another Texan” is bathroom  
graffiti seen in New Mexico and Oklahoma. They really must be  
entertainment-deprived in those states. 

The potty poetry dates from at  least 1984, and the author is unknown (of 
course).

There’s the one from the bathroom wall: 

Here I sit,  my cheeks a flexin’, 
I just gave birth to another Texan.

Once encountered on an outhouse wall in Oklahoma:  

Here I sit, 
Cheeks a flexin’, 
Giving birth 
To another Texan.  

Those Oklahomans really don’t like Texans.
