The legend here was told
The first to hide the eggs
Was a long-horn with four legs

Instead of hiding eggs
Behind the shrubs and lilacs
He was always caught
Feeding his seven stomachs

This critter had a hunger
And so this is what he did
He ate up all the grasses
Where the goodies should be hid

He tried to kick the habit
Have something else to munch
But the only patches working
Were the ones he had for lunch

Oh, how now Easter cow
Will you get off the grass?
How now Easter cow
Do you eat grass so fast?

How now Easter cow
Do you eat all those buds?
How now, bow wow
Meow, Easter cow
Will you stop chewing cud?

His sidekick was a hare
The bunny waited there
For him to get his fill up
He ate until he hicupped

By dawn's early light
You could see the lawn was gone
Just when hope had dimmed
The rabbit's plan was drawn

He said, ‽Till you get help”
I'll be the one who is in charge here
The Easter cow said, ‽Bless you”
And he headed for some clover

Easter changed forever
When the rabbit hid the eggs
But we still miss that bovine
Two ears, one moo, four legs

Oh, how now Easter cow
Will you get off the grass?
How now Easter cow
Do you eat grass so fast?

How now Easter cow
Do you eat all those buds?
How now, bow wow
Meow, Easter cow
Will you stop chewing cud?

Moo-moo, moo-moo
Moo-moo, moo-moo, moo-moo
Moo-moo, moo-moo
Moo-moo, moo-moo, moo-moo

Your herbivorian tastes
Cost you your Easter place
I am sorry if this hurts
You've got no bunny traits

Moo-moo, moo-moo, moo
Moo-moo, moo-moo, moo-moo

Oh, how now Easter cow
Will you get off the grass?
How now Easter cow
Do you eat grass so fast?

How now Easter cow
Do you eat all those buds?
How now, bow wow
Meow, Easter cow
Will you stop chewing cud?
