Story behind Cows With Guns as told by song author Dana Lyons

I awoke at about 5:30AM one August morning in 1994 from a strange dream. Bovine revolutionaries had just taken Omaha in the most significant defeat of the US military since Red Cloud dusted Custer. The story was told in a simple countryesque tune with an over abundance of weak rhymes and low blow puns. I immediately rose to scribble down the 14 or so verses I remembered from the dream.

Several hours later my girlfriend found me in the parking lot writing in my notebook. We were about to leave on a trip where I was to meet her folks for the first time.

"Are you OK?" she asked.

"Oh, yeah, just writing a new tune".

"Let me hear it, perhaps you can play it for Mom and Dad this afternoon."

I sang her the tune.

"Maybe not."

I worked on the lyrics of COWS for several weeks and had a lot of difficulty with the ending of the song. At one point I had the US dropping nuclear weapons on the cows, but my friends quickly rejected this ending as "not positive", and "too sad". Which was true. But how could a bunch of poorly armed bovines defeat the greatest military might on Earth?

My old friend Robbie Liben was visiting from New York City. He is one of the worst punsters I've ever met in my life. When he gets on a role, it can be a real punishment. (groan). Anyway, he was hanging out with me up at the treehouse where I live, and we decided to go over into the neighbors hot-tub and work on the COWS WITH GUNS ending. Four hours later, a pruned Liben lept from the tub exclaiming "Whoppers, coppers, shoppers, choppers!" a quadruple rhyme capturing the entire Western experience of malls, meat, military, and a Hollywood cavalry rescue all in one neat double verse. COWS WITH GUNS was complete.

The credits mention a name to the song, so I assume so. Kudos to who wrote something so left field that its awesome.

That is an older song. My dad had me listen to that a few years ago. Funny to see it as a flash. Well done!

Song is pretty old, I like the flash animation

It's a partial repost I heard a group called Big White Undies play it in 96' or so

 

[Evadman]

That was better than the other cow one, "Im a cow".
