16 years ago, one day
I was walking down the street
I was cruising in Brooklyn, you know what I mean?
Something was cooking, but wasn't yet a chicken

There was a man selling chicks in a box
Hesaid, "2 for 1, but 3 for 2"
I said, "That's not bad, here's money for you"
One was magenta, the other was blue

I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken

One day, the blue one went away
The other grew up fuckin' well
She was noisy every night
I had always chicken-bite

Then I met a lover
One night, she made me dinner
Licking finger, I wondered
Where she got the chicken (repeat)

I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken

Spare the rod and spoil the chick
Before you go and shit a brick (repeat x3)

(I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken) (repeat through next verse and until end)

She went to college to study anatomy
I followed her father's butchery
We got two babies, is it cool?
One was magenta, the other was blue

I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken (repeat until end)
