The Lyrics
Fixed and Edited. The other version had a few lines missing and some pacing stumbles. This is the new and improved version of "Flight of the Conchords: Down And Dirty At The Farm"
Hitched a framer wife, Outer country pressure
Chopped off your thumb when using a thresher
The cattle you will milk, Those cattle you tried branding
Got kicked by those cattle, Job's not outstanding
You'll fish in the creek and a bass you'll bone
That came out wrong I mean bake the bloke
Your scarecrow's not decrowing
Birds eat your wheat
You want them off the grid
But you'll hear their laughing tweets
Your mother is knitting quilts, Your only wish
Is to make more money than those bloody Amish
The farm makes you frown bring pigs to the Faire
How'd those... Those pigs fare?
Not good just fair...
(Judging's not fair!)

Outer Country
Outer Country Pressure
Outer Country Pressure
Get annoyed with that rooster waking up in the A.M.
Since you live in the sticks you don't get to sleep in
Fill the manger, Pronto, Critters are hungry
Eggs hatched, Your chickens got funky
Muddy swines they wrecked your hedges
Carrots, peppers, radishes
Those plants you'll pulled to make some cash
With celery and eggplants you have stashed
In a bind creatures screw your land
Those rabbits love to slobber on your lettuce plants
Start up your tractor so you can get done fast
If your tractor stalls, Get a horse to plow that

Gotta sheer your sheep, Shovel donkey poo
Then go trim your Alpacas that spit cause they're rude
Think that office work would be much less tort'rous
Fit in on farmland and be a con-farm-ist
Though ho-downs would be fun with redneck flirtation
You're not overjoyed with cow lactation
Whittle chairs, Win woodcarving prizes
Use harvesters and barnyard devices

Nice work Matty! I like how you managed to find great country rhymes to match up with the OS. Took a bit of a dark turn at the end with the severed fingers part...but hey, who doesn't like a dark turn now and then?
The fingers severed bit was reflecting on the earlier line about getting your thumb chopped off when using a thresher in case that didn't seem clear not just darkness for the sake of being darkness. Thanks for the compliments though!
Way to farm this one well.
You bred and sowed some wonderful wordplay there. Blue Ribbon County Fair Prize for the most homophonic uses of "fair" in parody writing history.
(Artistry) I too enjoyed the "fair" homophones, as well as "con-farm-ist". Great parody and a great flip on the original, 555!
(Artistry) I think there was great wordplay in this one (which I honestly didn't expect at all), I just wish you could've done more with the choruses. There was literally no room to alter those at all, but that's an issue I have with the OS, not you.
