Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (Crazy)

(Parody of “Crazy” by Willie Nelson, Sony/ATV Tree Publishing)
Crazy, for feeding the Sheep BRAINS to cattle
And Crazy, for making cows into cow food,
Mad Cow, Is festering, growing and lurking
Till someday, it will make us all look like fools

Worried, darn right we all better worry
Wond’ring when our brain's gonna turn into GOOO,- OOO,- OOO
Crazy, for trying to rhyme anything with Bovine Spongiform Encephalopothy
crazy for listnin’ to the damn politicians that say
Mad Cow cannot happen here.

Crazy as a loon, crazy as the moon
Crazy for something, crazy for ground beef
Crazy for ground beef that’s been put together
From over thirty thousands tons of ground beef
Without clear lot separation. That’s what I’m crazy for.

Somebody’s got to eat all this corn, it’s up to us
Pack it into the cows, pack it into the burgers
Bring it into the fast restaurants and
Let’s eat it with one hand at seventy miles per hour
What a great idea, what a country, what a concept
Till it makes us sick, or die.
Have you seen video of those guys with spongiform encaphalopothy?
It’s not pretty.

Crazy, for trying to rhyme anything with Bovine Spongiform Encephalopothy
And we’re crazy for listnin’ to the damn politicians that say
Mad Cow cannot happen here.
