dumb cows

bunch of dumb cows on a hill by the highway
don't even know what country they're in
could be sudanese for all they know
could be swiss or american
where's their sense of history
where's their sense of pride
bunch of dumb cows, bunch of dumb cows
bunch of dumb cows on a sunny irish hillside

bunch of dumb cows, can't they hear that i'm hollerin'
don't even know who they're making milk for
could be jerks or the lactose-intolerant
could be terrorists at war
where's their sense of justice
dumb and dewy-eyed
you could come at them with a butcher knife
and they'd barely try to hide
bunch of dumb cows, bunch of dumb cows
bunch of dumb cows on a sunny irish hillside

those environmental freaks want to censor this song
"cows are people too" they say
"moo moo people moo" they say
but those environmental freaks wouldn't know a good song
if it was burning a hole in the ozone layer

bunch of dumb cows
on a hill by the highway
don't even know what happened last week
couldn't even say if sometime friday
they got tipped over by someone like me
where's their sense of progress
so damn satisifed
bunch of dumb cows, bunch of dumb cows
bunch of dumb cows on a sunny irish hillside

sometimes i wish i was a cow on a hill by the highway
wish i didn't know who i'm making milk for
wish i couldn't remember what happened last friday
wish i couldn't say my country's at war

moo moo moo moo, moo moo moo moo
moo moo moo moo, moo moo moo moo
