Old Macdonald Had a Baby

Here's a story about Old Macdonald The one who had that farm They only told us part of it But they really didn't mean no harm Old Macdonald Mack for short Did things that others can't He took care of all those animals Next door to a nuclear plant The cows had nine udders each Some of them had three heads And that could be a problem When it was time for them to be fed He had goats with camel faces And even chickens with lips He also had a few acrobat mules That could dance and do a few flips Now Mack stayed pretty much busy There was no time to hang his head If he felt down he'd talk to the horses For they could talk like Mr Ed Even his coon dog was affected Coons, he no longer chased He thought he was a ballerina With a tutu around his waist Then one day Mack had an Idea While he was doing some fishin' He'd open up a freak show And then he'd charge admission It came to past that Mack got rich And he moved far away They say that poor man's pregnant And he's got twins on the way So that was the many problems That Old Macdonald faced So the next time you sing that song Don't forget the nuclear waste
