Food Chain Gang

[by the Bungee Jumpin’ Cows]

Topic: Ecology: Food chain

Summary: This hard driving rock tune tells the story of a food chain involving a leaf, caterpillar, moth, frog, snake, raccoon, bobcat and insect/decomposers.

Chorus:

We're the food chain gang (repeat)

We connect everything (repeat)

Food chain can't break it or ya know

The pull affects the others and down we all will go

We're the food chain gang (repeat)

D- - -//C- G -G - - -/D - - -

Well the chain starts out with an oak leaf in the sun

Making carbohydrates and havin' lots of fun

Caterpillar eats it then turns into a moth

It ends up on a log in the belly of a frog

D - - -/C- G -/D - - -/C-G-/

Chorus

Now the log was sittin' by the shores of a lake

The frog became a dinner for a sneaky gopher snake

Now that snake thinks she's cool cause she's cold-blooded

Long comes racoon eats our reptile bud

Chorus

Bridge:

Please let me explain. Everyday again and again

You're a link in a bunch of food chains

Bm - - -/G - - -/ bm - - E

Racoon was sittin' just washin' his food

Bobcat came and ate him'cause she was in the mood

The bobcat died, she died of old age

The insects ate her - into soil she decayed

E - - -/D - A -/E - - -/D - A -/

Chorus
