Vincent the silk farmer!!
It’s 5 am and you can hear the faintest rustling sound
At Vincent’s mighty silk farm on the other side of town
The locals all scoffed when he put the mortgage down
They heard about his plans and they all thought him a clown
But they didn’t anticipate the strength of Scottish pride
Now they laugh no more as on his silky trail he does ride
He rounds them up every morning and around the shed they glide
He gives them their favorite breakfast and their silk he does debride
His fences are all low for silk worms are not very strong
And he doesn’t need a electric wire around the only watering pond
He doesn’t need a sewerage system for their scats they do not pong
They just gets washed away in the rain making the lawn really come along
He has no need for branding irons he does so keenly brag
But he does need his spectacles for the placement of the tiniest name tag
Every day he checks the trestles and adjusts the leaves that sag
He wears his RM Williams, his trusty akubra and his silky woven bag

Every day he checks the trestles and adjusts the leaves that sag
He wears his RM Williams, his trusty akubra and his silky woven bag
Leaving the barn door open for birds is the thing he does most dread
But his wife keeps it closed for she listens closely to what is said
He never has too go far away from inside his wonderful shed
And every night with a nip of scotch he sings a shanty as tucks them into bed
He is a proud silk worm farmer when he gloats down at the bar
The locals think the crazy Scotsman sometimes goes a bit too far
“Iam the only silk worm farmer” he states as he pounds his fist upon the bar
He has a T shirt and a sign above his gate that reads ‘Vincent’s silk bizarre’
So if you’d like to see a silk worm farmer going hard at his work
See a heard of busy silk worms silking like they’ve gone berserk
Then just go see my friend Vincent but never call him a jerk
He’ll proudly show all his worms and boast of his every perk
Vincent is a silk worm farmer, and a farmer of great renowned
He has the only silk worm farm, over there on the other side of town
So go and check your curiosity and then lay your $20 entry fee down
You’llsee Vincent running almost naked in his shed wearing only his‘royal’silky gown.
