A chicken farmer went out on one dark and dusty day And by the coop he rested as he went along his way When all at once, a rotten egg, hit him in the eye It was the sight that he most dreaded: Ghost Chickens in the Sky This farmer had these chickens since he was twenty-four Working for the Colonel for thirty years or more Raising all those chickens up to send them off to fry And now they came for their revenge: Ghost Chickens in the Sky Their beaks were black and shiny, their eyes were blazing red They had no meat or feathers - Folks! These chickens all were dead! They raised that farmer up and he died by chicken claw They cooked him extra crispy, and served him with cole slaw So let this song remind you if you want eternal peace: Don't raise up harmless poultry for to cook 'em in the grease Remember: don't raise animals that you will some day kill For a chicken may come haunt you, but Tofu never will.
I think there are another two verses or so. The song was performed in different ways at different times. There are some Youtube videos of it.
