geoff berner - swing a chicken 3 times over your head lyrics

Loading...

on my fortieth birthday
i woke up in poland
(accidentally)
i looked around and thought, “i better keep on rollin’,”
so we rolled right the f+ck on outta poland
alright

free christiania
that’s where my birthday ended
my friends said “where were you?
“we couldn’t find you
“why’re you bleeding?”
so i said
as i bled

i’ve been swinging a chicken
i’ve been swinging a chicken
i’ve been swinging a chicken
three times
over my head

i hear that superman’s a jew
(or at least an immigrant.)
and nosferatu, too
but what do they do
when they screw
up so bad
it’s like a kryptonite magnet
that is dragging them to their death bed?
what do they do instead?
they say
if you need me…
i’ll be swinging a chicken
i’ll be swinging a chicken
i’ve been swinging a chicken
three times over my head

if you do enough living
you’ll be faced with a decision
between committing a sin
and committing a different sin
then
you’ll want a shot at redemption
you want a shot at redemption?
don’t use a rubber chicken
because then the sin
just bounces back in

now you take it by each wing
and you sing
you sing:
“won’t you help me swing
“this frightened chicken
“it’s all i ever had.”

swing that chicken one time!
swing that chicken two times!
swing that chicken three times!
alright!
i’ve been swinging a chicken
i’ve been swinging a chicken
i’ve been swinging a chicken
three times over my head
