Lyrics
Chickery Chick
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Once there lived a chicken who would say
Chick-chick, chick-chick all day
Soon that chick got sick and tired of just chick-chick
So one morning he started to say
Chickery chick, cha-la, cha-la
Check-a-la romey in a bananika
Bollika, wollika, can't you see
Chickery chick is me
Every time you're sick and tired of just the same old thing
Sayin' just the same old words all day
Be just like the chicken who found something new to sing
Open up your mouth and start to say
Oh! Chickery chick, cha-la, cha-la
Check-a-la romey in a bananika
Bollika, wollika, can't you see
Chickery chick is me
