The Vandals
Tastes Like Chicken
[Intro]
Uh!
Huh!
[Verse 1]
And I think of myself, then I know the food I need to buy
Then I think of my health, and I know all living things must die
I'm taking the time, taking the time to understand
Why you and me were never meant to eat a bird that flies
[Chorus]
How does it make you feel
To take a life for just one meal?
The deal: two drumsticks and a breast
Just leave you so depressed that I must stress
Do not eat the chicken!
[Verse 2]
Now back to my health, I really don't need the vegetable
All covered in filth, it's almost unedible
Meat makes you strong, so strong that you can say
Who's the man? Who's the man now?
50 serving from just one cow
[Chorus]
How does it make you feel
To take a life for just one meal?
The deal: two drumsticks and a breast
Just leave you so depressed that I must stress
Do not eat the chicken!
[Verse 3]
I can taste the feathers in my mouth
Such a waste of time, 1 life, 1 meal should be a crime
Eat a bigger bird, 1 turkey, 10 people can be served
I don't care how they're raised, hormone injected do not phase me
You can stuff your free range chickens
I won't eat a bird that flies
[Chorus]
How does it make you feel
To take a life for just one meal?
The deal: two drumsticks and a breast
Just leave you so depressed that I must stress
Do not eat the chicken!
