[Bridge]
DIf you do enough living, you’ll be faced with a decision
DBetween committing a sin and just committing another sin
DNow you’ll want a shot at redemption, you want a shot at redemption?
DDon’t use a rubber chicken, because then the sin just bounces back in
DNow you take it by each wing and you sing
DYou sing, “won’t you help me swing this frightened chicken, it’s all I ever had”
DAlright DD, get ready
DSwing that chicken one time
DSwing that chicken two times
DSwing that chicken three times, alright!
[Chorus 3]
