Lyrics:

MICHAEL WAS A CHICKEN
WELL, A ROOSTER TO BE EXACT
HE HAD THE GRAVE MISFORTUNE
OF BEING ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE AXE

DECAPITATION EQUALS DEATH
TO MOST THAT'S JUST A GIVEN
BUT OL' MIKE SAW THINGS DIFFERENT
SO HE WENT ON A LIVIN'

HEADLESS MIKE, THE HEADLESS CHICKEN
HEADLESS MIKE REFUSED TO DIE
HEADLESS MIKE, HIS HEART KEPT TICKIN'
HEADLESS MIKE, OH WHAT A GUY

AN INSTANT CELEBRITY
HE TOURED THE COUNTRY IN AN AUTO
PROBABLY THE GREATEST THING
THAT EVER CAME FROM COLORADO

SO IF YOU'RE FEELING BLUE
THINK YOU'VE BEEN DEALT A BOGUS HAND
JUST REMEMBER HEADLESS MIKE
AND HOLLAR "AIN'T LIFE GRAND!"

HEADLESS MIKE, THE HEADLESS CHICKEN
HEADLESS MIKE REFUSED TO DIE
HEADLESS MIKE, ALIVE AND KICKIN'
HEADLESS MIKE, OH WHAT A GUY
