Prized Lyrics - Singles - Farmer Boys

Nominate the sitting hens 

While they cling to a screen wire 

Watch them picking with their cut-off bills 

Crown he fattest, crown the best 

Breeding brooder that contest 

In the competition that you give 

Let's play a losing game 

Versus the sickness and versus the pain 

Versus the butcher again and again 

The winning is rated 

The bodies were sized 

And the winner is ... prized 

Nominate the perfect egg 

And observe its innocence 

Like the whiteness of a stillborn child 

Crown the fattest, crown the best 

Laying layer that contest 

In the competition that you give 

Let's play a losing game 

Versus the sickness and versus the pain 

Versus the butcher again and again 

The winning is rated 

The bodies were sized 

And the winner is ... prized 

Nominated to die 

Prized
