If the band was an animal, they'd be: a wagon train of desert cottontails

Or if they were a food, they'd be: a spit-fired desert cottontail, served up in a dinner party at an old saloon

What about a piece of furniture?: the perfectly rhythmic clock on whose time the trains run on.

Okay, how about something to wear?: a duster

Animal, vegetable... pick a mineral: the gold that fueled the Old West

A side character from The Simpsons: Lenny Leonard & Carl Carlson

Deadly weapon: a six-shooter
