YOU, EWE, U
(As sung by Homer and Jethro, RCA Victor 20-5555)

I took a walk in the country, and as I wandered along,
I heard the strangest music. A sheep was singin' this song:

You, you, you,
I'm in love with you, you, you.
Your eyeballs are so blue, blue, blue,
You wooly booger you, you, you.

Then she said:
"You're nothin' but a muttonhead."
So he answered with a grin:
"Will you be my lanolin?"

He follered her over the mountains to see what he could learn,
But she disappeared in the bushes. He didn't see that U-turn.

You, you, you
Got me in a stew, stew, stew.
I could be so true, true, true
To a ewe like you, you, you.

Then he went and killed hisself because he was so blue.
He heard the radio playin' "There'll Never Be another Ewe."

So don't chase girls.
Don't be taken by their curls.
Remember this could happen to
Anyone like you — and you — and you-all.

Baa-aa-aa!
