mike the headless chicken went on tour

by the way, it's very easy to hypnotise a chicken
they're very prone to hypnosis 

but this was steel wheels stuff
voodoo lounge tour 
with no security 

arrested for drug possession
excess and abandon
i've never seen someone pack their bags so quickly

lengthy prison terms
nine days without a wink
this poultry moved to a chalet in montreux

a recipe for shepherd's pie 
mike's beak, face, eyes and an ear were removed with 
the hatchet blow

you've got the silver
