Lyrics[edit | edit source]
Cowbell
Cowbell
Cowbell singing in the dead of night
Cowbell
Cowbell singing in the dead of night
Cowbell singing in the dead of night
Crush my hand, don't be afraid
Crush my hand in a vice
Have blood spluttered all over your mind
Blood splatter
Blood splatter
Blood blood splatter
Blood splattering all over your brain
Moo, moo, moo...
I don't care, I don't care, I don't care....
This is a totally stupid song
It didn't work
Alright, wait, wait wait no...
