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?"
