about

Based on the true story of Mike the Headless Chicken, a rooster from Fruita, Colorado who miraculously remained alive after having his head chopped off. He soon rose to fame and toured sideshows across America in the 1940's. We found Mike's refusal to die even after being decapitated to be very inspirational and we dedicate this song to him.

lyrics

MICHAEL WAS A CHICKEN

WELL, A ROOSTER TO BE EXACT

HE HAD THE GRAVE MISFORTUNE

OF BEING ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE AXE

DECAPITATION EQUALS DEATH

TO MOST THAT'S JUST A GIVEN

BUT OL' MIKE SAW THINGS DIFFERENT

SO HE WENT ON A LIVIN'

HEADLESS MIKE, THE HEADLESS CHICKEN

HEADLESS MIKE REFUSED TO DIE

HEADLESS MIKE, HIS HEART KEPT TICKIN'

HEADLESS MIKE, OH WHAT A GUY

AN INSTANT CELEBRITY

HE TOURED THE COUNTRY IN AN AUTO

PROBABLY THE GREATEST THING

THAT EVER CAME FROM COLORADO

SO IF YOU'RE FEELING BLUE

THINK YOU'VE BEEN DEALT A BOGUS HAND

JUST REMEMBER HEADLESS MIKE

AND HOLLAR "AIN'T LIFE GRAND!"

HEADLESS MIKE, THE HEADLESS CHICKEN

HEADLESS MIKE REFUSED TO DIE

HEADLESS MIKE, ALIVE AND KICKIN'

HEADLESS MIKE, OH WHAT A GUY
