case, you make a good point.
(sorry Flint, I'm not to trying to steal your thread, but...).
I'm not really happy with "limp-wristed," (In the version I wrote after having too much sugar with lunch), and that would be a good replacement:
We pussyfoot around all day,
lily-livered, laggards,
lollygaggers, haggard, bedraggled,
we stagger toward the plane,
all work and no play,
shop-worn- and long-tormented-stragglers.
While ladies yawn, we put our pants on,
the gong rings out for absolution,
and Flint finally finds the final solution.
And "swagger" should fit in there somewhere, too.
