The Magnetic Fields - A Chicken with Its Head Cut Off lyrics
[The Magnetic Fields - A Chicken with Its Head Cut Off lyrics]
Intelligible and cute as Cupid
Knowledgeable, but not always right
Salvageable and free for the night
Well, my heart's running 'round like a
Chicken with it's head cut off
All around the barnyard falling in
And out of love
The poor thing's blind as a bat
Getting up, falling down, getting up
Who'd fall in love with a chicken
With it's head cut off? Whoa, Nellie
My wife doesn't understand me
Many dozens hope to land me
I'm for free love and I'm in free fall
This could be love or nothing at all
Well, my heart's running 'round like a
Chicken with it's head cut off
All around the barnyard falling in
And out of love
The poor thing's blind as a bat
Getting up, falling down, getting up
Who'd fall in love with a chicken
With it's head cut off?
We don't have to be stars
Exploding in the night
Or electric eels under the covers
We don't have to be anything quite so unreal
Let's just be lovers
Well, my heart's running 'round like a
Chicken with it's head cut off
All around the barnyard falling in
And out of love poor thing's blind as a bat
Getting up, falling down, getting up
Who'd fall in love with a chicken
With it's head cut off?
It ain't pretty
