On a chicken farm just [B] downstream from Oak Ridge, [C#] Tennessee,
a nuclear reactor leaked some water [B] [C#] accidentally.
[F#] What happened next is like a [C#] horror story by Ralph Nader.
That toxic waste leaked into [B] a brood house [C#]
incubator.
[D]
Inside that chicken coop they [C] always kept the TV [D] on.
Said the programs helped the chicks to grow, [C] helped to [D] keep them calm.
[G] As four little chickens put that [D] heavy water down their gullets,
the Kung Fu show was on the air.
[C] Something happened to [D] those bullets.
They began to grow [D#] and grow [E] with that Kung [F] Fu show locked [F#] in their brains.
[G] That's the only [G#] way we [A] can [E] explain.
[Dm]
Teenage Mutant Kung Fu Chickens.
Big as a house, strong [A] as a chicken.
[Dm] Anything they want is [Gm] easy picking
[A] for Teenage Mutant [Dm] Kung Fu Chickens.
[D] One said his name was Frickasy, [C] the second [D] Cordon Bleu.
The third was Cachetore, [C] and the fourth they [D] just called Stoop.
[G] They could have been dangerous having grown [D] so big on heavy water,
but they decided they wouldn't live their [C] lives on the side of [D] law and order.
[Dm]
Teenage Mutant Kung Fu Roosters.
Bad guys won't have it easy [A] like the Euster.
[Dm] They come with Tae Kwon Do and [Gm] all the fixings.
[A]
The Teenage Mutant [Dm] Kung Fu Chickens.
[B] Yeah, we used to sit down there at the barn holding the auction so we wouldn't lose [Bm] the farm,
when all of a sudden these four big bullets with black scarves around their foreheads
come over that hill yonder and surrounded them bankers, pecked them on the heads,
dropped them like green persimmon.
Yeah, then they went down there at the bottom forty,
and then start scratching around like chickens just want to do,
before you know it they feel ready for planting.
