For All the Cows Lyrics

I'm called a cow
I'm not about to blow it now
For all the cows
For all the cows

It's funny how
Money allows all to browse and be endowed
This wish is true
It falls into pieces new the cow is you
The cow is you

My kind has all run out, as if kinds could blend
Some time if time allows, everything worn in
Everything worn in
Everything worn in, like it's a friend

I said you're all
A painted doll
And it caused the walls to fall
How far is he?
Impatiently
That's as far as far can be
As far can be

My kind has all run out, as if kinds could blend
Some time if time allows, everything worn in
Everything worn in
Everything worn in, like it's a friend

I'm called a cow
I'm not about to blow it now
For all the cows
It's funny how
Money allows all to browse and be endowed
And be endowed

My kind has all run out, as if kinds could blend
Some time if time allows, everything worn in
Everything worn in
Everything worn in, like it's a friend

The metaphor of being a "cow" represents feeling undervalued and overlooked, while money and appearances drive society. The lines reflect frustration with insincerity and materialism, showing how people blend into roles and expectations. There’s a hint of hope, though – breaking down façades might lead to genuine connections. This song is a reminder that staying true to yourself is the real power move, no matter how out of place you may feel.
