Why Did the Chicken Cross the Road?


Because she didn't want to get fried.
Because she didn't want to get tarred and featherd.
Because Hoover said there should be two chickens in every pot.
Because Trump called her
And you have to be a chicken to do what Trump says.

Because there was a fox tailing her.
Because the dog, Fido, wanted to chew her bones.
Because her chicks wanted eggs.
Because ... because ...
Because a strange rooster made a pass at her by pulling her by the ...
Once he figured out that, for anatomical reasons,
He could not lay.
Because the light turned purple.
Because a dirty old rooster was groping her breast and wouldn't let go
and she couldn't convincce him he grabbed her wing by mistake.

Because some human wanted to BBQ or make caesar salad out of her.
Because she was humming tales for the unhatched. sunshine
Because she accidently impretnated her rooster and had to get away from him
Before he found out he was going to have a baby
And not a buch of chicks like he thought,
And then he would have beaten her up with drumsticks
Or grownd her up with gizzards.
Because there was nothing on television.
Because she was delivering eggs to the grocery store.
Because Md-donalds was looking for raw materials.
Because the Great Chicken God,
creator of the chicken Universe,
In which, orriginally, the Earth was shape like a chicken,
and on which chickens ate humans for dinner,
Commanded her to.
Because the patient in the home across the street wanted breakfast.
Because the yolks inside her ... her ... "mmmmm" were rotting
Producing gasses that were causing her, like a rocket,
to go jetting around.
Because she was neither a cat or a zebra therefore she had no choice.

Because somebody was pulling her leg.
Because she had to pay through the nose.
Because she was carrying the eggs of one of those nasty birds
That get other species to hatch their nasty eggs for them so they can then eat the new chicks.
Okay, somebody else's turn?  Any chicken will do.

Fertilized eggs from king Soopers, please?

Jaime
