Songdrops – There's A Cow In My Soup lyrics

[Verse 1]
You've been a great server even though you're busy.
My food is really nice and hot. My drink is cold and fizzy.
Just one little thing I almost hate to mention:
Maybe someone in the kitchen wasn't paying close attention,
'Cause...

[Chorus]
There's a cow (There's a cow)
In my soup (In my soup)
That might be why (That might be why)
It smells like... It smells like cow.
There's a cow (There's a cow)
In my soup (In my soup)
If it's not too much trouble, could you remove it now?

[Verse 2]
I don't have a problem with cows most of the time.
When they're out standing in their field, everything's just fine.
Maybe I'm just picky or not in a great mood,
But I'm utterly un-thrilled to have one sitting in my food.

[Chorus]
There's a cow (There's a cow)
In my soup (In my soup)
That might be why (That might be why)
It smells like... It smells like cow.
There's a cow (There's a cow)
In my soup (In my soup)
If it's not too much trouble, could you remove it now?

[Verse 3]
I don't know how it got there; it's not a common thing-
In fact, this might just be the first cow in my soup I've seen.
So I'll believe you if you say it won't happen again,
But it's eating all my salad and that just describes one end.

I tried salt and pepper but my soup did not taste better,
Then I tried some hot sauce but that just made it wetter.
It's hard to slurp your soup when it smells just like wet leather.
It makes me think, "Why don't cows shrink when they're in rainy weather?"

[Chorus]
There's a cow (There's a cow)
In my soup (In my soup)
That might be why (That might be why)
It smells like... It smells like cow.
There's a cow (There's a cow)
In my soup (In my soup)
If it's not too much trouble, could you remove it now?

[Verse 4]
It's one thing to be driving and see some distant cattle,
But to have one fighting for my bread is too much of a battle,
And by the way, its tail just splashed into my drink,
So now I think,
I'll throw my drink,
With all its stink,
Right down the sink!

[Chorus]
There's a cow (There's a cow)
In my soup (In my soup)
That might be why (That might be why)
It smells like... It smells like cow.
There's a cow (There's a cow)
In my soup (In my soup)
If it's not too much trouble, could you remove it now?
If it's not too much trouble, could you remove it now?
