In the House of the Cow

Shuffle, plod and now I moo in the obedient line of cows Hack, slash and cry Concealed I stare blank down and sigh Shovel, bend and pack The meat cold slides now off my back Eyes, ears and nose Master seems to not need those Revolt, stalk and stand Burn through control the dirty brand Whittle, shave and douse The Cow in me supports the House
