How Now Easter Cow

Hee-haw!

Before the bunny show
The legend here was told
The first to hide the eggs
Was a long-horn with four legs

Instead of hiding eggs
Behind the shrubs and lilacs
He was always caught
Feeding his seven stomachs

This critter had a hunger
And so this is what he did
He ate up all the grasses
Where the goodies should be hid

He tried to kick the habit
Have something else to munch
But the only patches working
Were the ones he had for lunch

Oh, how now Easter cow
Will you get off the grass?
How now Easter cow
Do you eat grass so fast?

How now Easter cow
Do you eat all those buds?
How now, bow wow meow, Easter cow
Will you stop chewing cud?

His sidekick was a hare
The bunny waited there
For him to get his fill up
He ate until he hiccuped

By dawn's early light
You could see the lawn was gone
Just when hope had dimmed
The rabbit's plan was drawn

He said, till you get helped I'll be the one who is in charge here
The Easter cow said, bless you
And he headed for some clover

Easter changed forever when the rabbit hid the eggs
But we still miss that bovine
Two ears, one moo, four legs

Oh, how now Easter cow
Will you get off the grass?
How now Easter cow
Do you eat grass so fast?

How now Easter cow
Do you eat all those buds?
How now, bow wow meow, Easter cow
Will you stop chewing cud?

Sing along
Moo-moo, moo-moo, moo-moo, moo-moo, moo-moo
Moo-moo, moo-moo, moo-moo, moo-moo, moo-moo

Your herbivorian tastes
Cost you your Easter place
I am sorry if this hurts
You've got no bunny traits

Moo-moo, moo-moo, moo, moo-moo, moo-moo, moo-moo

Oh, how now Easter cow
Will you get off the grass?
How now Easter cow
Do you eat grass so fast?

How now Easter cow
Do you eat all those buds?
How now, bow wow meow, Easter cow
Will you stop chewing cud?

So what do you think Junior?
Did you enjoy the sad story of the Easter cow?
Yeah, I guess
What's the matter? you don't have the usual pep in your step today
I know, I just miss my dad
I understand

Oh, hey Bob's back
Bob you've got grass on your face
Have you been playing Easter cow?
I can't believe I'm actually going to admit this, but
Yes, I have been playing Easter cow

Okay kids, listen up
I have a special Easter surprise for you
We're going to have an Easter egg hunt

Mr Bob, Easter eggs are fun, you know
But how is going on an Easter egg hunt going to teach us about the Easter story?
You'll see Annie
Okay kids, just make your way through this door out onto the back lawn
It's time for the incredible Easter egg hunt
