here are the lyrics to the song i mentioned earlier:

CHICKENS FOR PEACE

Chickens for peace! We're chickens for peace!
And we don't want to fry!
Chickens for peace! We're chickens for peace!
One little war, and we're chicken-pot-pie!

Chickens for peace! We're chickens for peace!
And no one respects a chicken who begs!
Chickens for peace! We're chickens for peace!
One little slip and we're hard boiled eggs!

Chickens for peace! We're chickens for peace!
But we're not chicken chickens! We're taking a stand!
Chickens for peace! We're chickens for peace!
And our chicken spirit is sweeping the land!

The doves and the hawks are still fighting.
The swans and the ducks are all wet!
But us chickens have all been uniting!
And what chickens want, chickens get!!

We're chickens for peace! We're chickens for peace!
And we will win! We're not turkeys! (Or geese!)
We're chickens for peace! We're chickens for peace!
Hold up your beaks and join in!
'Cause those bombs make hot water
That will make chicken soup from the grease
Of us chickens for peace!
