Lyrics
There's an age-old question, 'bout a chicken and an egg
And who came first, it's a damn powder keg
Feathers in a frenzy, all around the nest
When the heat turns up, they’re giving their best
In the coop at dawn, when the world’s still dark
The chickens get busy, leaving their mark
But there’s a little secret, don’t be affraid
When the chicken comes first, the egg always gets laid
When the chicken comes first, the egg always gets laid
In the straw-filled beds where the games are played
Clucking softly, in the morning shade
When the chicken comes first, the egg always gets laid
The hens are whispering, with a knowing glance
They’ve got a rhythm, a midnight dance
They settle in close, as the night starts to fade
When the chicken comes first, the egg always gets laid
It’s a quiet cluck, a soft serenade
As they lay down low, in the nests they’ve made
And when the moment’s right, no need to persuade
When the chicken comes first, the egg always gets laid
When the chicken comes first, the egg always gets laid
In the straw-filled beds where the games are played
Clucking softly, in the morning shade
When the chicken comes first, the egg always gets laid
In the early light, when the dawn’s just begun
The chickens know well, how the race is won
Feathers ruffle gently, and there’s no delay
When the chicken comes first, the egg’s on its way
Scratching the surface, finding the spot
In the coop of life, they’re keepin’ it hot
The eggs come rolling, in the morning light
When the chickens are happy, everything’s right
When the chicken comes first, the egg always gets laid
In the straw-filled beds where the games are played
Clucking softly, in the morning shade
When the chicken comes first, the egg always gets laid
So here’s to the chickens, doing what they do
In the circle of life, they always come through
They take the lead, and the bed’s well-made
When the chicken comes first, the egg always gets laid
