I wrote this for the 56 chickens I once lived with (26 roosters!) all of whom had names and were part of the family, and for their far ranging tribe...and for those who list Chickens first among their passions in their waaco profiles.
Dead Chicken Blues
by Dewey Pullet
(aka sd gross)
We're dead little chickens
we were axed but who cried?
some of us are fricaseed
and others Southern Fried
you think we don't mind
but if you ask us on the phone
we'll say we hope you choke
on a chicken bone
Cluckcluckcluckcluck
boobooboo
(repeat)
We're the ghosts of dead chickens
and we're comin' after you
Well the nuns marry Jesus
but we're Colonel Sanders' bride
he said he'd make us happy
but he took us for a ride
when he said "gimme head"
I knew my future was bleak
"cause he bit it right off
just like some carnival geek
Cluckcluckcluckcluck
boobooboo
We're the ghosts of dead chickens
and we're comin' after you!
You like-a Cacciatore?
well I hope you catch a cold
and Chicken a la King means
we won't get very old
and if you want to keep ogling
that cute chick's legs
you better stop eating
all those hard boiled eggs
Cluckcluckcluckcluck
boobooboo
We're the ghosts of dead chickens
and we're comin' after you!
I was born in a barn
but I didn't get very far
I got a one-way ticket
to some dirty abbatoir
they hung me by my legs
but I'm feelin' no pain
'cause I star in a production
called "Chicken Chow Mein"
Cluckcluckcluckcluck
boobooboo
We're the ghosts of dead chickens
and we're comin' after you!
There's chicken Kiev and
Chicken tetrazzini
You can pot us in a pie
if you wanna be a meanie
you can cream us
you can steam us
you can even cordon bleu
and like the hens all say,
"any cock'll do"
