In trying to talk about sheep for a while there are numerous problems I might have to face

I wrote a song about sheep whilst on the bus back yesterday.

A sheep is a hardy remarkable creature
It lives on the mountain where nothing else grows
But give it a lawn and some grass for to munch on
And watch as its health and its happiness grows

I don't recommend keeping sheep in your house
Or letting one loose on your manicured lawn
For you may come home to find poos in the kitchen
And all of your grass most haphazardly shorn

For a sheep it is not an inside sort of pet
It is perfectly happy outside in a field
It's not terribly bothered about getting wet
But still, give it a shelter beneath which to shield

A sheep it is known as a most wooly creature
It gets rather warm in the summery time
So get you some shears of electrical nature
To shave it all off, and you'll both be just fine

The sheep will be glad that it isn't too hot
And you can sell the wool for a reasonable fee
Or spin it and knit it all into a jumper
A comfort for you (but too itchy for me)

Erm... there were a few other verses, I think, but I forgot them.
