Lyrics:
I'm going down to Cowtown
The cow's a friend to me
Lives beneath the ocean and that's where I will be
Beneath the waves, the waves
And that's where I will be
I'm gonna see the cow beneath the sea
The yellow Roosevelt Avenue leaf overturned
The ardor of arboreality is an adventure we have spurned, we've spurned
A new leaf overturned
It's a new leaf overturned
And so I'm going down to Cowtown
The cow's a friend to me
Lives beneath the ocean and that's where I will be
Beneath the waves, the waves
And that's where I will be
I'm gonna see the cow beneath the sea
We yearn to swim for home, but our only home is bone
How sleepless is the egg knowing that which throws the stone
Foresees the bone, the bone
Our only home is bone
Our only home is bone
And so I'm going down to Cowtown
The cow's a friend to me
Lives beneath the ocean and that's where I will be
Beneath the waves, the waves
And that's where I will be
I'm gonna see the cow beneath the sea
Yes I'm going down to Cowtown
The cow's a friend to me
Lives beneath the ocean and that's where I will be
Beneath the waves, the waves
And that's where I will be
I'm gonna see the cow beneath the sea
Yes I'm gonna see (I'm gonna see)
The cow (the cow)
Beneath the sea
It's a father
It's a mother
It's a lover
It's a brother
It's an ancient tale
We came from
We came from
We came
All the same
In unison
Gentle beasts
Too sweet to survive
What
A strange
Thing
How cow
Wow cow
Sea cow
Mi-ka-ooo
Wow cow
Sea cow
Mi-kau
It's an ancient tale
Mi-ka-ooo
We came from
Mi-ka-ooo (it's a father)
Mi-ka-ooo (it's a mother)
It's a lover
Mika
Oh, I do like to be beside the sea
Drinking bear sits in Silver's Arcade
Sips imaginary lemonade
Amusement Pork!
Writing letters home
What a lovely view-EE-ooo (blah blah blab blab) (Dear Mom)
"What the Butler Saw" was a bit of a drag
The captain says he's going to heave, too
Bored with Bingo, we went for a swim
Fat sea cows with gorgonzola skin
Semi-nude!
I woke up this morning
Extinction blues were on my mind
I woke up this morning
Extinction blues were on my mind
There are so many species
That we can no longer find
Tasmanian tigers they went a long time ago
Tasmanian tigers they went a long time ago
They had real cute hides
They just went and stole the show
As dead as a dodo he was a real friendly guy
As dead as a dodo he was a real friendly guy
But when them dudes started shootin'
That bird he couldn't even fly
That stellar sea cow she was the biggest seal in town
That stellar sea cow she was the biggest seal in town
She was a real slow mover
Those sailing cowboys shot her down
I woke up this morning
Extinction blues are on their way
Well I woke up this morning
Extinction blues are on their way
Boy that list is getting longer
Each and every single day
gannets plunge shallow
see sea see blue sea green sea deep see scattered light
see the slough of the land
clog my estuaries tide line mud bank
waves thick with it slur my words
each washing tide coughs me up
white bags
white bags that drift like jellyfish fool the turtle fool the shark pack their guts
drift again
swirl and gather tumours the size of countries
breaking down
and breaking down
and breaking down
immortal particles
pump in shrimp blood in the muscle-tongues of oysters
longer than bird-time fish-time whale-time
small enough to breach cell skin seal skin kelp skin
lost my grayling my sea cow my sea mink my auk
the ice-cliff that calves into my bright polar waters
gannets plunge shallow
see sea see blue sea green sea deep see scattered light
see the slough of the land
clog my estuaries tide line mud bank
waves thick with it slur my words
each washing tide coughs me up
white bags
white bags that drift like jellyfish fool the turtle fool the shark pack their guts
drift again
swirl and gather tumours the size of countries
breaking down
and breaking down
and breaking down
immortal particles
pump in shrimp blood in the muscle-tongues of oysters
longer than bird-time fish-time whale-time
small enough to breach cell skin seal skin kelp skin
lost my grayling my sea cow my sea mink my auk
the ice-cliff that calves into my bright polar waters
gannets plunge shallow
see sea see blue sea green sea deep see scattered light
see the slough of the land
clog my estuaries tide line mud bank
waves thick with it slur my words
each washing tide coughs me up

Hey Cap’n Scurvy’s Such A Pervy, chasin’ them little Gulls
For Immortal Porpoises, he feeds ‘em bounty
As they frolic the ol’ ship’s hull
He says he’s got a mast so tall
He’s tryin’ to slip it in any port of call
He’s huntin’ booty, but not gold or pearls
Just chasin' skirts on deck, the ol’ cabin girls
With a “Yo-Ho-Ho” and a naughty grin
He’s hopin' someone’ll let him in
Hey Cap’n Scurvy’s Such A Pervy, chasin’ them little Gulls
Flogging’ their feathers with wet Cow-hide leathers
Chasin’ ‘em round the hulls
With a “Heave-Ho” and his pants half-mast
He’s hopin' to plunder and have a blast
He’s not lookin’ for shiny gold doubloons
Just hopin’ to see some naked full moons
He’s a scumbag, he’s a barnacle, he’s a shot across the bow
He’s a sea slug, a black worm, a stinkin’ sea cow
Hey Cap’n Scurvy’s Such A Pervy, chasin’ them little Gulls
Flogging’ their feathers with wet Cow-hide leathers
Chasin’ ‘em round the hulls
With a “Heave-Ho” and his pants half-mast
He’s hopin' to plunder and have a blast
He’s not lookin’ for shiny gold doubloons
Just hopin’ to see some naked full moons
He’s a scumbag, he’s a barnacle, he’s a shot across the bow
He’s a sea slug, a black worm, a stinkin’ sea cow
Hey Cap’n Scurvy’s Such A Pervy, chasin’ them little Gulls
For Immortal Porpoises, he’ll even bang corpse-a-cus
Tied to a ship’s hull
He’s got a plank he says you should walk
As he takes out his pirate cock
His rigging’s loose and his sails are stiff
He’s searchin’ for a lass to give ‘em a lift
He’ll promise treasure, he’ll promise fame
But all you’ll get is his pirate Maime!
Burbling
Distorted
A cheesecake nun advertising
20 brands of sea cow lemon shit
In 60 different languages
A gargoyle handjives
For the hard of hearing
Subliminals
Criminals
Phoney businessmen in thick-rimmed glasses
Bad comedians
Laughing bags aping the Hallelujah Chorus
The forgotten version
Out of key (slightly)
Just enough to annoy you
My flavour is cheap perfume
On rotting Man-Ray maggots!
Scooter

We started in 1994 In 1996, we're still on the case
Hold tight crew Together, no one can stop us now
So I wanna check the microphone, I wanna check the microphone
I wanna check, I wanna check
The bird, the tree, the cow, the sea,
The Rick, the Ferris and MC H.P.
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Lone star lone star
My how you've grown and
No-one sees it
Lone star lone star
Where do you hide
Cause I can't find you
Yeah yeah ahhh yeah
Lone star lone star
Where do you hide
Cause I can't find you
Lone star lone star
My how you've grown and
No-one sees it
Ten Thousand reasons for the raw ink and the sea cow
Ten Thousand meanings for the questions for your answers
Down
Come Down
Come Down
Come Down
Down
Come Down
Come Down
Come Down
Lone star lone star
My how you've grown and
No-one sees it
Yeah yeah ahhhh yeah
McGIC SO GOOD HE EVEN CHcNGED MY VOICE FOR THIS HERE SONG!
If you dive in to the ocean
cnd find a sea cow's magic potion
That's the magician of the sea
It's McTT the magic McNcTEE!
cll you gotta do is shout
FROM YO BIG OLE McNcTEE SNOUT!
Could I find it again,
that mossy gate
So nearly overgrown
With crowding grasses
And a high sea of cow parsley faces
Brushing an arch of leaves,
Might I find it -?
Never go back, they say,
So I will not try
Except in dreams, to find
Where the hot road forked
The wheels ran suddenly soft
And we looked through
To limitless summer
But did not climb over.
I want to check the microphone
I want to check the microphone
I want to check
I want to check
The bird
The trees
The cows
The sea
The Rick
The Ferris
The MC HP
Nothing makes a point like time is hard to come by
Think in absolutes, don't let anything pass by
You must be sick, watching me punch myself
I can't be, good for your health
I want you swimming, next to me
My breast stroke's shocking, clearly
I float like an anvil
I don't wanna be a gamble
It mellows my mind
I might actually sleep now
Float with me
I'm basically a sea cow
I'd rather be In the ocean
But the baths will do for now
I can't be, good for your health
I want you swimming, next to me
My breast stroke's shocking, clearly
I float like an anvil
I don't wanna be a gamble
I don't mind swimming in the slow lane, if I get to keep my brain
I don't mind swimming in the slow lane, if I get to keep my brain
I don't mind swimming in the slow lane, if I get to keep my brain
I don't mind swimming in the slow lane, if I get to keep my brain
I want you swimming, next to me
My breast stroke's shocking, clearly
I float like an anvil
I don't wanna be a gamble
There's always light in here
Your freedom is a ghost arm boy
A sea cow mooching along
I bet ya think she's still your friend
Your body is on again!
I'm afraid that was your imagination
I want you so bad now!
There's always light in here
Your freedom is a ghost arm boy
A sea cow mooching along
I bet ya think she's still your friend
Your body is on again!
I'm afraid that was your imagination
I want you so bad now!
There's always light in here
Your freedom is a ghost arm boy
A sea cow mooching along
I bet ya think she's still your friend
Your body is on again!
I'm afraid that was your imagination
I want you so bad now!
Shark bite
Shark bite
Shark bite
Don't bleed, or you'll be hunted all night
Shark bite
Shark bite
Don't scream, or you'll be locked in her sights
Shark bite
Shark bite
Swim freestyle in the cold, dark moonlight
Shark bite
Shark bite
Take a breath and try to keep
Calm
Try to keep calm
Well it will go away, the threat of feeling preyed
If you aim for the causeway
Just keep calm
Keep calm like a bomb, yeah
Knots away from the mast now
Floating by all the sea cows
Need a fisherman's cast
How am I gonna last?
Jumping off of the ship's bow
Like it's days in the past now
Never thought to ask myself
How am I gonna last?
A rat in a boat with a cup of tea
A rat in a boat out on the sea
Rat diddle-dup, rat diddle-dee
A rat in a boat with a cup of tea
Rat diddle-dup, rat diddle-dee
A rat in a boat out on the sea
A cow up a tree with a hoola-hoop
A cow up a tree with a bowl of soup
Cow diddle-dup, cow diddle-doop
A cow up a tree with a hoola-hoop
Cow diddle-dup, cow diddle-doop
A cow up a tree with a bowl of soup
A dog on a bus dancing on his feet
A dog on bus bopping to the beat
Dog diddle-dup, dog diddle-deet
A dog on a bus dancing on his feet
Dog diddle-dup, dog diddle-deet
A dog on bus bopping to the beat
A little green frog eating mushroom pie
A little green frog with big green eyes
Frog diddle-dup, frog zippetty-zie
A little green frog eating mushroom pie
Frog diddle-dup, frog zippetty-zie
A little green frog with big green eyes
When I think about the awesomeness of God
How He perfectly sets everything in it`s place
The fishes in the sea, and the cows in the Meadow
The eagle at the Peak of the mountain with her chicks
The forest and the hills, and the birds in the trees,
singing praises to his name.
On a dark stormy night
We ploughed the salt sea
Our good ship was rocked
And struck by lightning
The fiery bolt
Destroyed our mainmast
And burned up our sails
Right down to the last
When morning came
All hope had taken flight
Feared we'd be dead
Under a fortnight
Adrift at sea
With no way to catch wind
And now you see
Our story begins
A ship without sails ain't no ship all
When we called out for help, no one heard our call
Til a mermaid named Victoria came a-swimmin' near
And that big, busty mermaid wore a big old brassiere
The brassiere was giant
As a brassiere could be
Do they have a Lane Bryant
Under the sea?
