You, comin` here Tellin` me how proud you are Some clown just handed you A shiny little silver star You say, over there, the men are brave While the chickens stay away `Cause they`re all too much afraid To fight for somthin` they should believe in I`m sorry friend, you`ve got it backwards
They won`t follow when your whistle blows Won`t come runnin` when your rooster crows Don`t eat the same old corn until their minds have gone They don`t fear the squawk of the little silly chicken hawk Uh, uh huh, help us clean our own backyard Before you go to preach abroad Believe me, it won`t be easy
As you well know, not ever bird can roam the sky I see your wings, man, but can you fly? All I see when I look down, something jumpin` on the ground, scratchin` dirt Cluckin` in the barnyard, tell me, could that be you? In that case, lay another egg Try to save yourself from the bar-b-cue
