"Chicken And Feathers" lyrics
"Chicken And Feathers"
Always I wait, always I wonder
Whether something's coming on, and about time
Everything is straightened now, and without surprises
They're handing out the prizes now, and here comes mine
You get the chicken, I get the feathers
I'm always eating crow, no matter whether
Whether I'm right, or I'm wrong
But this sorry situation gonna be changing pretty soon
Oh yeah, uh-huh, ooh-ooh
Patience of saints is what I got tons of
But even saints have gotta snap sometimes, and I'm about to
You can put the pressure on, like taking candy
Everything is dandy now, according to you, oh
I get the sip, you get the swallow
Just why I'm kinda thirsty, kinda beaten hollow
Whether I'm right, or I'm wrong
This sorry situation gonna be changing pretty soon
You get the chicken, I get the feathers
I'm always eating crow, no matter whether
Whether I'm right, or I'm wrong
But this sorry situation gonna be changing pretty soon
Oh yeah, uh-huh, ooh-ooh
Oh yeah, uh-huh, ooh-ooh
Oh yeah, oh yeah, uh-huh, uh-huh, ooh-ooh
Oh yeah, oh yeah, uh-huh, uh-huh, ooh-ooh
