Chickery Chick Lyrics

Once there lived a chicken who would say, "chick-chick" (Bawk bawk bawk bawk ba-bawk bawk bawk bawk bawk bawk!)
"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 rome in a bananika
Bollika, wollika, can't you see
Chickery chick is me?

Chickery chick, cha-la, cha-la
Check-a-la rome 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 rome in a bananika
Bollika, wollika, can't you see
Chickery chick is me?

Bawk bawk bawk bawk ba-bawk bawk bawk bawk bawk bawk!
Hey Larry, what's the matter with Moe?
He's crazy, he thinks he's a chicken!
Why don't you send him away?
We can't, we need the eggs!
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 rome in a bananika
Bollika, wollika, can't you see
Chickery chick is me?

Bollika, wollika, can't you see
Chickery chick is me?

Bollika, wollika, can't you see
Chickery chick is me?

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
