Folks , do you know of a dandy chicken
Who went berserk in a swanky kitchen ?
In a three piece suit , a sight to behold
From his neck , hung a necklace of gold .
He walked with a strut and a swagger .
Once, the poor fellow did almost stagger,
When a creepy crawly tried to encroach
into his space – it was a dapper cockroach!
With incredible flair, he flaunted a cigar
Also nibbled greedily on a chocolate bar .
The dandy chicken was fond of brandy .
How he loved the taste of sweet candy !
He crinkled his nose at the bland cornflakes
Salivating at the sight of cookies and cakes.
Puffing stylishly at his costly, branded pipe
this narcissistic type started to crib and gripe
when cock- eyed , he eyed a delicacy cooked .
On the smell , the dandy chicken was hooked. Never the one to stay away from temptation . Unaware of an imminent fiery annihilation,
the chicken gave vent to a lingering sigh
In a burst of spunk, he jumped three feet high
And fell into the boiling cauldron- the poor guy!
Now , the talk of the town is this chicken fry !
