The Bull, And The Goat

A drunk, and hungry bear losing his hair

Living on a boat right off the coast he said

"Ain't you got nothing else to do?

Just look at my head son

Is it lost, or under fire

It's my only one

Ain't you got nothing else to do?"

Well, sir I was bought for the lessons I was taught

But the Bull and the Goat, they tried

To drown me in a moat

So, I'll be on my way, with a kindly "Good day"

It's enough to say

You're simply in my way

I got something else to do

Ain't you a shame?

Look at all your friends that came, and left alone

They heard you beating that wooden drum

Ain't you a claim

To the souls left to hang from oaks for gold?

Even in death it's still so cold

After twenty years thought

And a thousand acres bought

I found the bear in a trap I made

His leg in a mangled state

I said, "I'm willing to make a trade

Your life for a simple glass of lemonade"

Well, the Bear he just thought, as I had me rifle cocked

Of what the wind through the grass obeyed

Of the boat where he once had stayed

It said, "I'd love to see you through

But I've forgotten how to chew

I think my head has been rotten through

It's best I be left in two"

Man, don't be so plain

You know that life's a life with pain

It keeps you whole

It keeps you wanting to save your soul

Oh, God, I feel so tame

Hanging diamonds from my name

I'm so young, I know

That's why I fear where I won't go
