A Chicken With Its Head Cut Off

Eligible, not too stupid

Intelligible and cute as Cupid

Knowledgeable but not always right

Salvageable and free for the night

Well my heart's running 'round

like a chicken with its head cut off

All around the barnyard

falling in and out of love

Poor thing's blind as a bat

getting up, falling down, getting up

Who'd fall in love

with a chicken with its head cut off?

Woah, Nelly!

My wife doesn't understand me

Many dozens hope to land me

I'm for free love and I'm in free fall

This could be love

or nothing at all

But my heart's running 'round

like a chicken with its head cut off

All around the barnyard

falling in and out of love

The poor thing's blind as a bat

getting up, falling down, getting up

Who'd fall in love

with a chicken with its head cut off?

We don't have to be

stars exploding in the night

or electric eels under the covers

We don't have to be

anything quite so unreal

let's just be lovers

Well my heart's running 'round

like a chicken with its head cut off

All around the barnyard

falling in and out of love

The poor thing's blind as a bat

getting up, falling down, getting up

Who'd fall in love

with a chicken with its head cut off?

It ain't pretty
