(Verse 1)
I tried some fish tacos, so I took a big bite
Thought to myself, "This can't be right!"
I'm used to my nuggets, my wings, and my fries
I chewed on the fish, with a look of surprise
They told me the salmon, it's just like the bird
A feathered impostor, I took their word
But this ain't no chicken, it's not even close
My taste buds are buzzing, they've gone comatose.
(Chorus)
Not everything tastes like chicken, no, no, no!
My taste buds are confused, where do I go?
They said the alligator, the frog, and the quail
Just close your eyes, and you won't ever fail
But alligator's chewy, like a leathery shoe
And frog legs are slimy, a fact that is true
And quail's got this gamey and earthy-like tone
I'm stuck in this flavor quest all on my own!
(Verse 2)
My friends said, "Hey man, you should try new things!"
And offered me their spicy fried rings
A plate full of squid that was perfectly fried
A deep-fried calamari, I wanted to hide
I took a small bite, and I gave it a chew
It's rubbery, bouncy, and not at all new
This chicken comparison is such a chore
I'm walking right out and slamming the door!
(Chorus)
Not everything tastes like chicken, no, no, no!
My taste buds are confused, where do I go?
They said the alligator, the frog, and the quail
Just close your eyes, and you won't ever fail
But alligator's chewy, like a leathery shoe
And frog legs are slimy, a fact that is true
And quail's got this gamey and earthy-like tone
I'm stuck in this flavor quest all on my own!
(Outro)
Not everything tastes like chicken!
It's just not true!
Give me a burger, I don't wanna be a snob.
Or a hot dog, something that doesn't pretend to be something else.
I'm so lost!
