Tom Lehrer - The Hunting Song - lyrics

Almost every day during the hunting season you see at least one item in the newspapers about somebody who has shot somebody else, under the impression that he was a deer with a red hat perhaps,

A large flesh-colored squirrel. at any rate, it seems to me that this marks an encouraging new trend in the field of blood sports, and deserves a new type of hunting song which i present herewi

Br>



I always will remember,

'twas a year ago november,

I went out to hunt some deer

On a mornin' bright and clear.

I went and shot the maximum the game laws would allow,

Two game wardens, seven hunters, and a cow.



I was in no mood to trifle,

I took down my trusty rifle

And went out to stalk my prey.

What a haul i made that day.

I tied them to my fender, and i drove them home somehow,

Two game wardens, seven hunters, and a cow.



The law was very firm, it

Took away my permit,

The worst punishment i ever endured.

It turned out there was a reason,

Cows were out of season,

And one of the hunters wasn't insured.



People ask me how i do it,

And i say, "there's nothin' to it,

You just stand there lookin' cute,

And when something moves, you shoot!"

And there's ten stuffed heads in my trophy room right now,

Two game wardens, seven hunters, and a pure-bred guernsey cow.
