Chicken on a stick, sizzlin’ in the midnight glow,
grease pops like hi-hats, neon bones in a row.
Take a bite, hear the brass slide, juicy syncopation,
drumsticks drum sticks, finger-lick syncopation.
Sidewalk sax croons, moon’s a silver maraca,
every chew a back-beat, every swallow goin’ “baca-baca.”
Heart’s a fryer, love’s the spice, shake it, don’t stop—
chicken on a stick, baby, taste the be-bop.
