Lyrics

MICHAEL WAS A CHICKEN

WELL, A ROOSTER TO BE EXACT

HE HAD THE GRAVE MISFORTUNE

OF BEING ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE AXE

DECAPITATION EQUALS DEATH

TO MOST THAT'S JUST A GIVEN

BUT OL' MIKE SAW THINGS DIFFERENT

SO HE WENT ON A LIVIN'

HEADLESS MIKE, THE HEADLESS CHICKEN

HEADLESS MIKE REFUSED TO DIE

HEADLESS MIKE, HIS HEART KEPT TICKIN'

HEADLESS MIKE, OH WHAT A GUY

AN INSTANT CELEBRITY

HE TOURED THE COUNTRY IN AN AUTO

PROBABLY THE GREATEST THING

THAT EVER CAME FROM COLORADO

SO IF YOU'RE FEELING BLUE

THINK YOU'VE BEEN DEALT A BOGUS HAND

JUST REMEMBER HEADLESS MIKE

AND HOLLAR "AIN'T LIFE GRAND!"

HEADLESS MIKE, THE HEADLESS CHICKEN

HEADLESS MIKE REFUSED TO DIE

HEADLESS MIKE, ALIVE AND KICKIN'

HEADLESS MIKE, OH WHAT A GUY
