Rooster

I was sleeping peacefully in the middle of the hills of Italy
When I was awoken by the most annoying sound
Looked out my window and all around and all I found
Was the most retarded rooster in the next door neighbor's yard
It was only 2 am no where near the time that the sun shows its face
And that deranged rooster must have been from Outer Space
He was calling out every hour on the hour with such a power
I swear he had a megaphone and a microphone with a 50 amp fuse
And I could not snooze
I could see it in his eyes he was the feathered devil in disguise
And much to my surprise, I aimed and realized

I shot the rooster, I shot him down
I shot the rooster I buried him in the ground
I shot the rooster, Yeah I blew that cock away
No Mister rooster won't be waking me up today

Well the little town in Italy
Didn't quite understand my reasoning
And they all gathered in the square to
Figure out the proper punishment
For the murder of their beloved rooster
I was hiding up in the hills
And they surrounded me with pitchforks and lit torches so high
And they asked me why I could commit such a heinous crime
Que catso fai

I shot the rooster, I shot him down
I shot the rooster I plugged him with 8 rounds
I shot the rooster, Yeah I blew that cock away
No Mister rooster won't be waking me up today

No Mister rooster won't be waking me up today

But not awoken by that most annoying rooster crying
And I thought there was nothing like a good night's sleep before dying
And as they put the rope around my throat there was no denying

I shot the rooster, I shot him down
I shot the rooster I did not shoot the chickadee
I shot the rooster, Yeah I blew that cock away
No Mister rooster won't be waking me up today

No he won't be waking me up today
No he won't be waking me up today
No he won't be waking me up today

They'll be nothing waking me up today
