Terence Trent D'Arby - Greasy Chicken lyrics

Your rating:

There's trouble, baby
 in Paradise
 Your chicken's trying to slide away from you
 You're past your days of harmony
 When you call it back - you carouse it through
 Keeping your prayers on time
 Getting burnin' love in cities you can't recall
 He's packin' up and shackin' up
 He's leaving home
 Chicken feathers and all
 To the bridge boys...
 Gives you daytime, and the nighttime
 Is for these...
 Greasy chickens [x2]

 (Backing vocals)
 Can you stand it by your lonesome baby? [X2]

 Say! Dig it!
 You're livin' out your closets
 You're fined a day and
 So are most far behind
 You defy the bill collector
 With lipstick on it and a Valentine
 You've seen worlds of bastards
 But, better late than never - you understand
 Your chicken didn't leave you for another woman
 He left you for a younger man
 To the bridge boys...
 Push your love on the girls and bastards
 And you'll be - a greasy chicken
 Ha!

 A greasy chicken
 Good God! Sing!
 A greasy chicken
 Good God! Sing it!

 (Backing vocals)
 Don't you love all your freedom baby?

 You're late - Ha!
 But it was I who would
 Define your soul food
 And with your piece of mind
 No less denied
 No more chicken bones
 Share your love jones
 Because you fellas
 Can't shake the vice
 Hee!
 My Lord!

 Greasy chicken
 Big fat, greasy chicken
 Sing!

 (Background vocals)
 Can you stand it by your lonesome baby?

 Greasy chicken
 Greasy chicken - sing!

 (Background vocals)
 Don't you love all your freedom baby?

 Greasy chicken
 Big fat, greasy chicken
 Here go gravy!

 (Background vocals)
 Can you stand it by your lonesome baby?

 OH! A little gravy...
 Grill a little gravy...
 Greasy chicken - lawd!

 (Background vocals)
 Don't you love all your freedom baby?
