Chicken Little Surprise
I'm here my friends to clarify
what actually did take place,
when that one small acorn hit Chicken Little
and he started getting on everyone's case.
It seems the little chicken didn't understand
the natural laws of gravity,
and how when something falls from up above
it has to come down, you see.
His reaction was rather horrific
because he thought he was going to end up dead,
he ran around the farm, "willy-nilly"
screaming, "The sky is falling !".....trying to alert Farmer Fred !
Well, he created a crazy kind of panic
and had everybody worried, "sick",
but, Farmer Fred calmly went and called Oprah
for he'd discovered a talking chick !
Well, that should've been the end of the tale
but, chicken little wouldn't let things alone,
he squawked and made so much noise about the sky
that Farmer Fred couldn't be heard on the phone !
Bottom line, he should've made a bundle
by getting paid for his talking chick,
instead, Farmer Fred ate so much "chicken-little-surprise"
that he just ended up making himself sick !
