I don't even go here, as they say, but toft & J. & marginaliana & I were talking about this rectangular livestock meme popularized by The Museum of English Rural Life, and one thing led to another. Happy early birthday, toft.

"Squares Are Everywhere" (Watch on Vimeo)

Edited lyrics:

Squares, squares, squares, squares
See them here and see them there
Squares, squares, squares, squares
Squares are everywhere

Can you grow your poodle's hair
In the shape of a square?
Oh, yes you can
But you've got to take some care
And you must beware
That some people might stare
(Looky there!)
If your poodle's hair is square

Squares, squares, squares, squares
See them here and see them there
Squares, squares, squares, squares
Squares are everywhere
Squares are everywhere
(Squares are everywhere)
Squares are everywhere
