Old MacDonald had this farm

Ee ai ee ai o

And on this farm he had some Canadian Geese, 
Ee ai ee ai o

With a goose poop here and a goose poop there
Here a goose poop, there a goose poop,
Oh I can even see some gosling poop,
Ee ai ee ai o

Old MacDonald had this farm
Ee ai ee ai o
And on this farm he had some ponies
Ee ai ee ai o
A black pony here and a brown pony there 
and Precious asked if they were both puppies
Everywhere a pony (or perhaps a puppy?)
Ee ai ee ai o

Old Mac Donald had this farm
Ee ai ee ai o
And in this barn he had a piggie
Ee ai ee ai o
Here a fat piggie, sleeping in a corner
Precious, disappointed, asked me 'piggie... oink?'
Everywhere I see only the slothful piggieeeeeeeee
Ee ai ee ai o

Old MacDonald had this farm
Ee ai ee ai o
And in the main barn there were no animals
Ee ai ee ai no?
With a video game here and a tractor there
With a John Deere product placement everywhere 
Ee ai ee ai ugh!


Old Mac... You know this...sing aloud, people
Ee ai ee ai o
And on this farm he had some chickens
Ee ai ee ai o
Finally, a cluck cluck here and a cluck cluck there
But Precious screamed 'KIKI (sparrow)bird!!!'
Here a sparrow there a sparrow near the green bin
We only care about the common sparrowwwww
Ah well Old MacD's farm... barn... @ the Lincoln Park Zoo, we'll be back.
