Chicken Wolf

G

[Verse]
 G
You come in here, telling me how proud you are, some clown just handed you a shiny little silver
 star
 C
You say, over there, the men are brave
  G
While the chickens stay away ‘cause they're all too much afraid
    D                                          C                                  G
To fight for something they should believe in,   I'm sorry friend, you've got it backwards


[Verse]
  G
They won't follow when your whistle blows, won't come running when your rooster crows

Don't eat the same old corn until their minds have gone
  C                                                         G
They don't fear the squawk of the little silly chicken hawk
 D                                C                               G
Help us clean our own backyard before you go to preach abroad, believe me it won't be easy


[Verse]
G
As you well know, not every bird can roam the sky, I see your wings, man, but can you fly?
 C
All I see when I look down, something jumping on the ground
   G
Scratching dirt, clucking in the barnyard - tell me, could that be you?
D                               C                                    G
  In that case, lay another egg   and try to save yourself from the barbecue
