Honky Tonk Chick

(screeech) Yeah, we talking 'bout the yard today.

(honk honk) They don't cluck,

they don't chirp. Woke up to the sound of a wild alarm

Not a rooster crowing on the peaceful farm It's a speckled grey

dynamic alarm clock squad Running round the garden on the fresh green

sod Polka-dotted feathers with a tiny little head Honking like a rusty

old truck instead (honk!) Yeah they sound like a horn in traffic

jams

My guinea fowl are honking all over the place (honk honk!) Running

sideways like they're in a race They see a little bug,

they begin to shout (screeech)

That's what the backyard noise is all about!

They are safety patrol for the local ticks No spiders allowed in

the yard or bricks They march in a line like a tiny

fleet With the fastest steps on their yellow feet If a cat

walks by, oh they blow the horn

Loudest little creatures that were ever born (waaaah!)

Yeah, they keep the perimeter safe and sound

My guinea fowl are honking all over the place (honk honk!) Running

sideways like they're in a race They see a little bug,

they begin to shout (screeech)

That's what the backyard noise is all about!

Yeah,

tiny speckled helmets

Honking through the sunset (honk!)

See you tomorrow, birds (honk

honk)
