Steppenwolf - Chicken Wolf Lyrics
You, comin' here
Tellin' me how proud you are
Some clown just handed you
A shiny little silver star
You say, over there, the men are brave
'Cause they're all too much afraid
To fight for somthin' they should believe in
I'm sorry friend, you've got it backwards
They won't follow when your whistle blows
Won't come runnin' when your rooster crows
Don't eat the same old corn until their minds have gone
They don't fear the squawk of the little silly chicken hawk
Uh, uh huh, help us clean our own backyard
Before you go to preach abroad
As you well know, not ever bird can roam the sky
I see your wings, man, but can you fly?
All I see when I look down, something jumpin' on the ground, scratchin'
dirt
Cluckin' in the barnyard, tell me, could that be you?
In that case, lay another egg
Try to save yourself from the bar-b-cue

Great life story of John Kay and the bands as well.....
One of the best anti Vietnam war songs
John Kay's accent always lent even more enigma to this band, which already had a deliciously ironic and acerbic sound-- and message. No one could have been a more perfect voice for Steppenwolf, and that's obvious enough, since it was John Kay's dreamchild anyway.
I used to get down on hands and knees to put one ear right into the speaker as this song played, along with all of "At Your Birthday Party", to examine these incredibly obscure enunciations. I still had to find published lyrics to know for sure what John Kay was saying.
Ah, the romance of rock.. .
