Bill and Bob

A couple of townies purchased a farm -
Thought they’d enjoy the peace and the calm.
But if hobby farmers they wanted to be,
They needed some animals for people to see.

They had a goat and some sheep with fleeces divine,
Who’d come when called, at any old time!
Thought: “A couple of calves is just what we need -
Good, healthy boys, of a well-known breed!”

When they arrived, they really looked sweet,
And Robyn was ready with bottles and teat.
Rearing two calves – what a good idea,
Until they discovwo farmersered they were both a bit queer!

It all started off with a suck now and then,
But then they did it, again and again!
Their bedding was dry – care couldn’t be finer,
But it seemed they preferred a good sixty-niner!

A call to the breeder just fell on deaf ears -
“Our dog’s a bit funny – has been, for years!”

When they grew up and were offered for sale,
Not one local farmer was seen at the rail.
The auctioneer tried hard, but to no avail -
This kind had no place at the Koonwarra sale!

So they took them back home, kept them ‘way out of sight.
Then a man from Sydney heard of their plight

Bought them on spec. – over the phone,
And promised to give them a kind, loving home.
Now, you wouldn’t believe how happy they are –
Leading the march in the Gay Mardi Gras!
