There’s goat on the hill<\/p>\n
He does what he will<\/p>\n
He’s a bit of a pill<\/p>\n
But it’s chill<\/p>\n
He’s a grumpy old bugger<\/p>\n
Kinda mean motherfucker,<\/p>\n
But for a goat, that’s kinda run of the mill<\/p>\n
He’s a great mountaineer,<\/p>\n
Has a long billy beard,<\/p>\n
His eyes a wise yellow,<\/p>\n
Pupils square<\/p>\n
He eats near whatever<\/p>\n
From tin cans to cheddar<\/p>\n
Because he, as a goat, doesn’t care <\/p>\n
Behind a fence made of wire<\/p>\n
Tied up to tire<\/p>\n
The old goat spent most of his days<\/p>\n
But on a hot summer morning<\/p>\n
A terrible fire<\/p>\n
Engulfed the whole farm in a blaze<\/p>\n
So he chewed through the rope <\/p>\n
And ran from the flames<\/p>\n
Climbed up in the old gnarled oak tree<\/p>\n
He nimbly climbed out on one of the branches<\/p>\n
Hopped over the fence, and was free<\/p>\n
The silly old goat, <\/p>\n
Running free through the woods <\/p>\n
Stumbled over the the old whiskey still<\/p>\n
He drank all the whiskey<\/p>\n
So, feeling quite frisky,<\/p>\n
He returned to the farm on the hill<\/p>\n
The farmer was glad for the old goat’s return<\/p>\n
But saw in his eyes murderous glee<\/p>\n
With a snort, the billy goat lowered his head and butted him right in the knee<\/p>\n
The farmer fell down on grass half burnt and brown<\/p>\n
And the old goat ran away free<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
