Mostly they just spend their time taking naps and eating, But now and again one decides the other one needs a beating. So they blow some snot and bow their necks and have a mighty tussle. Pushing and shoving and tearing up grass and flexing their massive muscle. They bellow and grunt and push and bunt, sometimes for quite a while, And the thing of it is there’s no lady cows to impress, for several miles. It’s kind of like Congress, given a task that they know they gotta do it. They crow and beat their chests and roar, before they get around to it.
