A cute story of billy goat love.


In the forest, across the bridge

Into the dark, warm cave

There is a shrine lit with candles

And above it reads this stave:

"How do you do, my dear friend

Are you lost? Well now you know

That here upon this laiden path

Lies the Billy Goat Grotto"

The walls are lined with cashmere,

Tin cans scatter the floor

I ask if he might stay here

And be my bride forevermore

But empty caverns, which empty hearts

Do fill for a time,

Are not the place for candid love

Nor seekers of his kind

He stands and gives a carefree glance

Beckoning with his smile

That I may leave this hollow place

And wander for a while
