We obviously have a more subtle version here on the Lizard
but I think this is a version of the same song.

We had some chickens, no eggs would they lay
We had some chickens, no eggs would they lay
And I said Honey, this sure ain't funny
We're losing money, no eggs would they lay.

One night a Rooster came into our yard
And caught them chickens right off of their gaurd
They're laying eggs now just like they used ta
Since the day that Rooster came into our yard

We had some moo cows, no milk would they give
We had some moo cows, no milk would they give
And I said Honey, this sure ain't funny
We're losing money, no milk would they give.

One night a Rooster came into our yard (with a stool)
And caught them moo cows right off of their gaurd
They're giving milk now just like they used ta
Since the day that Rooster came into our yard

We had some elephants no tusks would they grow
We had some elephants no tusks would they grow
And I said Honey, this sure ain't funny
We're losing money, no tusks would they grow.

One night a Rooster came into our yard (with a ladder)
And caught them elephants right off of their gaurd
They're laying eggs now (ivory) just like they used ta
Since the day that Rooster came into our yard

We had a tractor it just wouldn't go
We had a tractor it just wouldn't go
And I said Honey, this sure ain't funny
We're losing money, it just wouldn't go


One night a Rooster came into our yard (with a spanner)
And caught that tractor right off of its gaurd
It goes and goes now, just like it used ta
Since the day that Rooster came into our yard
