Poorly built Jenga towers Polka-dot the moor The cows and sheep, for centuries Have wondered what they're for Perhaps they're ancient ladders Leading straight to heaven But the last young lamb to try it Fell down and smashed his head in The cows tried them as markers To work out where they are But in their field that's useless As they never travel far

On Dartmoor
Poorly built Jenga towers Polka-dot the moor The cows and sheep, for centuries Have wondered what they're for Perhaps they're ancient ladders Leading straight to heaven But the last young lamb to try it Fell down and smashed his head in The cows tried them as markers To work out where they are But in their field that's useless As they never travel far
