Little Tiny Song Lyrics

Hey I'm a cow, I'm curious
Hey watch me now, I'm furious
Hey I'm a cow, I'm full of hate
Hey watch me now, I'm on your plate

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Ok, I'm a cow, having fun eating grass and chewing my cud. Suddenly farmer brown comes up and leads me to a big building, whatever. I wonder what is inside (hence, curious)? Now we're inside and he's poking me with a stick that shocks me, Quit it (hence, furious)!!! Now I'm looking up ahead and I see my friends getting hit with a big hammer and then farmer john takes a knife and slits their throats WTF!? (hence full of hate)

Farmer Brown: "More steak dear?" Mrs. Brown : "Yes, please." (Hence, on your plate)

I could be overanalyzing this song, like is what happens alot of times. But I think this song may be about prejudice in the world. He is first curious, then he gets, mad, and then hateful. It could show what a judge of character people can get from a judging a person they don't really know.
