'WHAT A FUNNY FARM'

Scene – down on Old Macdonald’s farm


Chorus: A quaint life in the country
With pussy cat and a dog,
A pig, a horse,
Some chickens of course,
A goat, a cow, a hog.
It all seems too idyllic,
A life of relaxations…
But what if all the farm yard
Worked at "human" occupations?
Dog: I'm Spot – private detective.
The farm crims I pursue.
If you steal eggs or cheese or jam
I'll sniff out every clue.
I don't get paid in dollars
In gold or all that stuff.
They pay me in Pal Meaty Bites
Which I think's really ruff! Ruff! Ruff!
Sheep: We don't just stand out in the field
And chew upon the graaaass.
We've branched out and diversified
And joined the upper claaaass.
I studied psych at Oxford.
Sleep Therapy for the tense,
And if psychology doesn't work
They count while I jump a fence.
I'm a Wool Fashion Designer,
With robes flowing and fitted,
And if they don't like my designs
I tell them to "Get knitted".

What A Funny Farm
If Old Macdonald had developed an intelligence enhancing stock feed, imagine how much more productive his farm would have become. Each intelligence enhanced animal provides the opportunity for performers to anthropomorphise a farm yard character in the context of a well-known nursery rhyme setting.
