Pussy Cow


from the ABC set Puffs of Poetry

The strangest thing happened in the Genetic lab

A sperm and egg were mixed by accident

The egg was from a cow, the sperm was from a cat

It grew into an ugly thing that went

MOOEEOW.....MOOEEOW

IT WAS A PUSSY COW

Its front legs were a foot long with cat claws

The hind legs were a cow's with hoofs

We had to feed it mice and milk and straw

It had a kitty face and a cow snoot

MOOEEOW....MOOEEOW

IT WAS A PUSSY COW

It walked like Godzilla with a rash

Its fluffy ten foot tail would curl and swing

Its hide was like a Guernsey on its backs

And the belly calico with fuzzy rings

MOOEEOW.....MOOEEOW

IT WAS A PUSSY COW

We found it rolled up in a ball one day

Trying to feed itself on its udder

It broke its' neck while flopping in the hay

So we all had cat burgers for supper

MOOEEOW.....MOOEEOW

IT WAS A PUSSY COW

MOOEEOW.....MOOEEOW

A tasty Pussy Cow!
