Spin off from the satirical puppet TV series Spitting Image, the Chicken Song amazingly reached number one in the UK charts.
It was written by Rob Grant and Doug Naylor, two Spitting Image writers, with music by Philip Pope. The song was sung by the impressionists to (what seemed) the tune of Agadoo.
Some people found the lyrics offensive but the majority of the population must have found it amusing otherwise the song wouldn't have spent 3 weeks at number 1.
