Lyrics

Well, I come home late from a hard days work
And I couldn't even mention all the places where I hurt
I ask the little woman what she's cooking in her microwave

She gets a smile, it's a big surprise
And, I'm gitten kinda hungry as I swap a few flies
Then, she serves casserole and we sit and eat our fill

Mama, that was great, could ya tell me what it is
And she says cheerfully, "it was Roadkill"

Roadkill, serve it with an onion or two
Roadkill, makes a very tasty stew
I know what yer thinking, that it's read and dead and stinkin f it's Roadkill
But don't cha put it down cause it's right uptown, it's Roadkill

Well yer drivin down the road and it's gitten kinda dark
Yer listenin to the radio, a song by "Restless Heart"
And you didn't mean to hit her, but a little bitty critter goes thump

Makes you feel bad but you're not to blame,
to leave it layin there just seems an awfull shame
so, you stope along the road and scoop it a plain brown bag

Now if you let it age for a week or two
Yer guests will never know that it was Roadkill

CHORUS

Now, everybody knows that the school lunch plan
Don't offer all the protein that a kiddy ought to have
So, I got an idea and I took it to the PTA

Told all about my new cuisine;
Never seen so many faces turn so green
Someone made a move to dispense with the coffee and rolls

Business sure is slow at my little café
Since I told the PTA about Roadkill
