Cow Patty

Its not that I meant to take it 
Its not that I thought you’d care 
But when you left the house today 
I saw it sitting there. 

I thought it tasted funny 
I thought it was a fake 
It looked just like a muffin 
or someone’s birthday cake. 

I guess that’s what I’ve got 
coming to me now. 
I should have left the pie alone 
and left it with that cow.
