Ponies

Chorus
Why we got these ponies Ma?
Why we got ponies?
That we don’t know a damn thing about
We got ponies.

Repeat

Verse 1
No food on the table.
We can’t pay the rent.
Cuz you got seduced
By funky equine scent.

Why did you name these ponies Flash and Star?
They ain’t no car.
Barkers pulled a fast one.
They’re bogus Men O’ War.

Chorus

Verse 2
Is it Timothy or clover?
So many kinds of hay.
We don’t have a friggin’ clue.
Let’s give ‘em both away.

It must have seemed romantic.
Annie Oakley your muse.
I hate to break it to you Ma but this is horse abuse

But then there’s... [Shouted in unison]
Instrumental

Chorus
Why we got these ponies, Ma?
Why we got ponies?
That we don’t know a damn thing about?
We got ponies?
