Last Night in Chickentown
From the last of the ninth
To the trundling haze
To the genie in tights
The experimental phase
I don't stop at lights
I don't sleep for days
I've been seeing the sights
Baby, I'm amazed
Last night in Chickentown
Dark as dungeon
Way down in the mine
Playing percussion
Playing in time
I don't need no introduction
I don't drink no cherry wine
I'm concluding our discussion
Taking everything that's mine
Last night in Chickentown
Last night in Chickentown
On the killing floor
You think you're satiated
Then all you want is more
Last night in Chickentown
I leave with no regrets
I've spoken with my creditors
I've handled all my debts
Desecrating legends
Squandering boasts
From the outskirts of Denver
To the heavenly host
I know you think I'm outrageous
I think you're outrageous too
Meet me by the cages
At the old county zoo
Last night in Chickentown
From the floor to the ceiling
To the length of my dress
That which you find appealing
Is that which causes you distress
And I know it's a nightmare
And I know it's a scream
Every good work of conscience
Is a confidence scheme
Last night in Chickentown
Last night in Chickentown
To the trundling haze
To the genie in tights
The experimental phase
I don't stop at lights
I don't sleep for days
I've been seeing the sights
Baby, I'm amazed
Last night in Chickentown
Dark as dungeon
Way down in the mine
Playing percussion
Playing in time
I don't need no introduction
I don't drink no cherry wine
I'm concluding our discussion
Taking everything that's mine
Last night in Chickentown
Last night in Chickentown
On the killing floor
You think you're satiated
Then all you want is more
Last night in Chickentown
I leave with no regrets
I've spoken with my creditors
I've handled all my debts
Desecrating legends
Squandering boasts
From the outskirts of Denver
To the heavenly host
I know you think I'm outrageous
I think you're outrageous too
Meet me by the cages
At the old county zoo
Last night in Chickentown
From the floor to the ceiling
To the length of my dress
That which you find appealing
Is that which causes you distress
And I know it's a nightmare
And I know it's a scream
Every good work of conscience
Is a confidence scheme
Last night in Chickentown
Last night in Chickentown
