Karaoké The Chicken Bo Burnham

The chicken wakes up like she does every morning to the sounds of her husband's screams

Sat in the dark on the eggs she is warming

She closes her eyes and dreams of

Walking to Memphis

Becoming a dentist

Anything but this

I mean she likes her life as a mother and wife but is that all she is

She stares out the window

The very next morning the chicken decides to

Make her escape

Get a taste of freedom

She runs out the coop that her life's been confined to

Suddenly sees the thing she's only dreamed of

Just up ahead gophers run through a meadow

Deer graze

Birds sing

Her future is waiting right there for the taking

There's just one thing

The chicken must first cross the road

The road

A sea of trees and green and moss waiting just across the road

The road

A life of brighter days a width of road away

The road is gigantic

The chicken is little

She moves ahead

Left-right-left

Right-left-right

All of a sudden she stops in the middle

Frozen in place by a pair of headlights

It's anyone's guess what then happened next but most think she died

But I think we ought to believe that she got to the other side

So that's why she did it

Goodbye
