Wishbone
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.
Kill a chicken get it with a spike
You can cook it anyway you like
Tell me if you like the taste
On this old rooster nothing goes to waste.
I'll take the wings and you can have the breast
Never mind the feathers think about the rest
We don't want the head we can cut off the feet
Choke it by the neck and cut up the meat.
Wishbone--wish for anything you want
Wishbone--gives you anything you want.
