Mama, I killed a deer
I saw him come so near
in my headlights it is clear and o
Mama, I killed a fish
snapped him from his stream
thought I heard him scream and o
Mama, I killed a frog
we dissected him in class
the teacher let it pass and o
Mama, I killed a fly
they never asked me why
but I know I cannot lie and o
Mama, I killed an ant
I squashed it with my foot
now I know I’m no good and o
Mama, I killed a cat
I was curious at that
but now it makes me fret and o
Mama, I killed a cow
a butcher told me how
a Hindu disavows and o
Mama, I killed a horse
majestic was his force
sad was I of course and o
Mama, I killed a pig
a hatchet did the trick
it’s more humane than bricks and o
Mama, I killed a snake
hit him with a rake
down by a murky lake and o
Mama, I killed a whale
Melville got it right
I lie awake at night and o
Mama, I killed a duck
he waddled out of luck
but I didn’t give a fu.. and o
Mama, I killed a shark
it happened in the dark
look he has left his mark and o
Mama, I killed a bird
it didn’t take a third
stone for him to die alone and o
Mama, I killed a mouse
I put a trap next to his house
I am not worth my vows and o
please forgive me
