chicken from Snark by King Dooker

enough to scratch and peck, good all the day
we're watchful, what the heck?
you gonna take my egg away?
we sleep all night up higher where it's safe
outside teeth would bite
and wanna take my leg away

if i found the way out or understood the door
if i knew how to fly why i don't get to soar
leave in the sky
sticking with the ways that got us by while you
Mind Reader, we never gonna answer who or why
we stay here, produce
no freer to try, still wary to lose

fickle distracted mind on what i see you say
wrong thinking and unkind
to take my egg away
supply the feed, bring water for the tray
my egg is what you need
so you take it away

if i could spin the game and understood the use
if i had respect when respectfully refused
peck ya in the eye
get too close and that's what i'll try an do
King Giant, nothing else that i deduce without
but stay here and excuse
compliant, resolute, defiant, obtuse, ya
