“Cock” & “Bull” Songs

You may not believe it's true, but these "Cock" & "Bull" Songs are merely a collection of tunes with one or both of these words in their titles. And they are all, surprisingly, quite enjoyable. But I'm sure you're not buying that flimsy excuse. Enjoy?  ~  JH

1)  Mitzi Gaynor  ~  “A Cock-Eyed Optimist”

2)  Rage Against The Machine  ~  “Bulls On Parade”

3)  Foghorn Leghorn  ~  “Cock O’ The Walk”

4)  Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass  ~  “The Lonely Bull”

“Zoo” Songs

I love the zoo, and you should too! There's so many things to see and do. Here's some songs that fit this theme. More songs, in fact, than it would seem. Apparently, these artists do, in fact, also enjoy the zoo.  ~  JH
