The Lyrics

They're in the dell, those two:
Farmer and wife.
And soon they are joined by a zoo,
Also a child,
Yes, they have a child.

Among them, a rat sits;
The cat runs it down.
Then there is a doggy
To thrash the cat, bat it to the ground.

The dell is quite a zoo. . .
The poor feline.
Canine!!!!

It's a zoo!
It's a zoo!
It's a zoo!
It's a zoo! There's a cow.
It lacks a hare,
And it's porcine-free--
There is no sow.

But there's cheese!
The dell is quite a zoo
At feeding time.

Why are you always putting 7 or so different versions of the same song? A little overboard in my opinion. No vote, just wondering.

Well John, I tend to disagree with the other two comments so far..but this parody which mentions "zoo" made me think to ask you, have you ever tried peanuts instead of cashews?

Huff, Stuck: to reiterate my top comment on another of today's postings: "If anyone's even looking at this sh*t, my apologies for a project that got out of hand. But since I spent the time on it, I'm going to see it through to the end, which will come tomorrow." You think it's tedious to read, you should try posting it all. Royce--peanuts after tomorrow.
