When you find yourself in danger
When your threatened by a stranger
When it looks like you will take a lickin' (buc-buc-buc-buc)
There is someone waiting
who will hurry up and rescue you
just ca-all for Super Chicken (Buc-ark)
But if your afraid you'll have to overlook it
besides you knew the job was dangerous when you took it.
He will drink his super-sauce
and throw the bad guys for a loss
and he will bring them in alive and kickin' (buc-buc-buc-buc)
There is one thing you should learn
when there is no-one else to turn to
Ca-all for Super Chicken (buc-buc-buc-buc)
Ca-all for Super Chicken (Buc-arc)

Super Chicken (in reality Henry Cabot Henhouse III), along with George of the
Jungle and Tom Slick (driver of the Thunder-bolt Grease-Slapper), came out
out J. Ward studios (the great folks who brought us Rocky and Bullwinkel).
He and his assistant Fred (in reality Fred) operated out of a penthouse on
the top the tallest building in Pittsburgh.
	Its been said that cartoons can't be what they use to be because of
the cost of quality animation. But if you look at the old Jay Ward stuff, you
can see that the animation is not that much different than what is being
produced today. What made them so fine were the plot lines, the dialogue, the
creativity that modern cartoonists seem to be lacking (not to mention the
puns). Only Jim Henson and his crew seem to be doing anything comparable,
albeit in a different but related field. I'm sure the writers have to be out
there, perhaps it is only the networks desire for mass market appeal that keeps
them from being seen (Sigh).
	Write your network, bring back the Rock.
