about

I watched a documentary about the mysterious cattle mutilations of the late 70's & was expecting some sort of resolution for the finale. As I watched the credits roll naming all of the UFOlogists and "cattle mutilation experts" I remember feeling for the farmers. I mean, their cows straight exploded & no one has given them any sort of concrete answer. It's fun to come up with your own theories: US military testing a new weapon?, little green men??, TEENAGERS?!?

lyrics

point their fingers at the youth
who obviously aren't at fault
up to their necks in sugar looking for a grain of salt
the truth is that the truth will never surface on how
farmer Brown wound up with a mutilated cow

Farmer Brown wound up with a mutilated cow.

a far more distant race in a far more distant dimension
far from license plates and far from hair weave extensions
it sounded like a jumbo jet and looked like a cloud
farmer Brown wound up with a mutilated cow

Farmer Brown wound up with a mutilated cow.

follow the feeling that we are not alone
stare at the ceiling in our so called home
I give you truth, but I don't know how
farmer Brown wound up with a mutilated cow
farmer Brown wound up with a mutilated cow

*kazoo solo*
