cackle)....."

Maybe in my recollections I mix the songs up, but I'm pretty sure those are
two different songs...
Is there someone in the age of 30 - 40 who remembers?
Should be glad about ID (Artists or even lyrics...)
Thanks a lot

Talking Heads did Psycho Killer and I think the Chicken one originated
from Australia but not totally sure. The man with the curious voice is
the great David Byrne

U mean this?
Talking Heads
Once In A Life Time
Psycho Killer
I can't seem to face up to the facts
I'm tense and nervous and I
Can't relax
I can't sleep 'cause my bed's on fire
Don't touch me I'm a real live wire
Psycho Killer
Qu'est Que C'est
fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
Run run run run run run run away
Psycho Killer
Qu'est Que C'est
fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
Run run run run run run run away
You start a conversation you can't even finish it.
You're talkin' a lot, but you're not sayin' anything.
When I have nothing to say, my lips are sealed.
Say something once, why say it again?
Psycho Killer,
Qu'est Que C'est
fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
Run run run run run run run away
Psycho Killer
Qu'est Que C'est
fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
Run run run run run run run away
(* Spoken interlude in French *)
Psycho Killer,
Qu'est Que C'est
fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
Run run run run run run run away
Psycho Killer,
Qu'est Que C'est
fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
Run run run run run run run away
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh....
See ya

I want to play my music as loud as i please
I want to grow my hair down to my knees
I won't get a job and be punching your clock
I won't be another number in your lay off slot
You say i'm scum - D.R.I. 1989
who did it???
I dont remember! darn!
I think their song parodies are at least as good if not some how
better than Weird Al.

This Colonel Sanders job is gettin' me down
A crazy chicken chasing me all over town
CHORUS:
Psycho Chicken--what the fuck?
Bwak bwak bwak bwaaak bwak bwak bwak bwak bwaaak bwak
Better run run run run run run run away
I don't know just what to do
He's got a grudge against Frank Perdue
He's clucking a lot, but he's not saying anything
I plucked him once--why pluck him again?--CHORUS
Colonel Sanders wants to cook his goose
but Psycho Chicken's still on the loose
("Hmm, a little chickie--" BWAAK!! "OHH!!")
They caught him down in Ohio
They cut off his head and they put him in the oven
They put him in a box right next to a roll
Put some (...) around his legs and someone took him home
Ate him for lunch and he tasted real fine ("BURP!")
but the guy who ate him, he just lost his mind!
HALF-CHORUS (with "Qu'est-ce que?")
CHORUS (with "What the fuck?")
("Ooh, it's all covered in feathers!")

thanks a lot for your contributions. At least my mind was right there were
two versions. I'm glad about my brain :-))))
The question is, why isn't anywhere anything to be found about the Fools.
After the first one of you told me the artist's name by mail I started to
search for it in http://www.ubl.com/ - the ?ultimate? band list. Nothing.
But I'm really pleased about the case being clarified...and of course about
the lyrics...
only the music's missing...

Did a small search myself using Yahoo, and there was a bit about them on
the Trouser Press Online Record Guide--www.trouserpress.com.

Apart from a whole lot of extra silly noises on the Fools' version, the
music was pretty close to the original.
