lyrics

You've got a field full of cows
That you milk once a day
But there's a problem with the cows
They keep running away (They don't want to be milked)
You could build a fence
But it's a really hot day
And you won't have to milk them if they all run away
So come on everybody! Do the bare minimum!

If there's a problem in your life
You could sort it out right
But it could just be more fun
If you just let it slide
So don't write a novel
Just write an opening line
You've achieved something great in much less time
So come on everybody! Do the bare minimum!

Put your left arm in
Don't move it at all
Just leave it there
We're having a ball
Is your left arm still in?
Then you're doing it right
Is it feeling slightly tingly, like the blood's draining out of your arm?
Hey that's really something! You're really doing nothing!

Just getting by
That's how you get through life
No you don't eat the whole pie
You just eat a slice
And you could write a whole song
But why bother?
