The Lyrics

Here’s a vittlin’ kid I tote—
I’d never dig a wigglin’ shoat.
Goat curry—me happy.
I got a wife, but she just trouble,
But goat is furry and got no stubble,
Goat cure me—we happy,
Goat furry—me happy now.

[ovine overtures]

Goat furry—sheath nappy, goat squirmy—me happy,
Goat curry—me lappy, goat purty—me happy.

After wife has gone to bed,
The body I like: in the shed.
Goat purty—me happy.
But after I am spent, this fate:
My mate going to be ate.
Goat curry—me happy

[ovine “Oh!”vertures]

Cookin’ spree, me happy; goat curry—me happy.
Here I go for my goat luncheon. I make curry, all meat
That make my happy. Goat curry—sweet snacky.

Ain’t like the hash, ain’t make me smile,
Ain’t like no gal; that ain’t my style.
Goat girlie, he?. . .happy.

’cause when there’s curry, there ain’t no frown,
So I’m gonna wolf some sweet meat down.
Goat curry—me happy

Goat furry, goat curry—the two fit,
Be happy—put a smile on your face,
Goats bring everybody chow,
Goats furry—whether lad, lass—whatever, dig in!
Goat purty—be happy,
I hog curry; I’m happy!

First sheep, now goats? "But after I am spent, this fate:/My mate going to be ate." is a great couplet.

This sounds closer to being actual Jamaican that Bobby McFerrin tried to sound. And I always like it when someone takes a song I hate and turns it into a parody I like. Which, I suppose, gives you this month's James Blunt Memorial Trophy. (No, he's not dead, except maybe from the neck up.)

Tastiest even-toed unglate parody on the site... in the ballot box of AIR All Stars, rest assured, you've got my goat!

McKludge: Many thanks.

Madame: I guess so.

FG: Thanks, thanks, thanks.

MP: Would that someone would smoke that Blunt--at least his "music."

TJC: Thaaaaaaaaaaaanks!

Fives for the TiTle switch alone! -- ewe definitely curried my favor with your flavor. But I'm afraid we'll both goat-oo Hell for our best-ever-iality.

Zen question: Is it better to be the goater, or the goatee?
