The Lyrics
Sometimes it takes becoming a chicken, to become a man.
Cl-cl-cl-CLUCK!
Verse 1: I strut the yard like a rooster in the morning
Don’t need a keeper now to tell the time
I have been changed, making poor old me suffer with feathers
Egg-laying nethers, and tasty thighs
I did wrong by an insane necromance
Leaving me trapped in a bird that can’t fly
I’m dropping eggs like an egg-spoon race reaching its climax
Forgive me my syntax, the reason I…
Chorus: Know!
Why I’m a chicken is simple to show
When the fight got bold, I heel-toed, and I choked!
I get goose pimples by even a scowl
And now my mood is always fowl…
Cl-cl-cl-CLUCK!
Verse 2: You don’t know what his powers have done to me
He has my soul cooped up in a pen
And what’s more wrong is the sinister switching of giblets
I mean my “tid-bits,” I’m not a hen!
I count the crows ‘til the fate that shadows me
My eggs have holes, so I am useless
There is no hope, hear the call of a machine that minces
Leaving me breastless, Kentucky fried!
Chorus: Cluck!
Now I’m a chicken who’s run out of luck!
When the farmer’s struck, I’ll be plucked, and that sucks!
I am a whimp, I wish I were a duck
But soon nuggets, I will become
Real soon nuggets, I will become!
[Instrumental Break]
Verse 3: I live on as an avian internee
Won’t ever get to re-transmogrify
You sit judging now, thinking country life sounds really sultry
Not when your poultry, I’m terrified
I strut on like a well-trained cockerel
I will protect my hens to ratify
Don’t come at me like a discount, knock-off Colonel Sanders
Cuz that’s not good manners, lick those fingers right…
Chorus: Off!
Cuz I’m a chicken protecting my flock!
I’m a fighting cock, I won’t balk, I will not!
I’ll prove my mettle with feathers and bawks
And who needs a thumb? Give no clucks
So, why be a man? You can cluck
Not rooster or crow!
Yes, I’m a chicken, you should watch your toes…

One of Disturbed's songs that I've actually started sketching too once, but gave up on because of pacing issues. I think you nailed it as well's possible here. Pretty funny too.
This one was really funny! I did a song about becoming a dog and marrying a chicken but never becoming a chicken so this was a blast. I liked the inclusion of a backstory in this one was well as the inclusion of the two meanings of chicken lol
(Artistry) A few pacing issues here and there, but I can forgive those because a) this is Disturbed, they're a bit tricky in that area and b) this was fantastically written. I'm a huge fan of transformation stories, so this was right up my alley. The backstory, the acknowledgement of the gender-switch, the puns, this was top-notch. 555 eggs!
There's the red jungle fowl, they're pretty vicious.
