Song by Jim Carroll<br /><br>

"Every crowd of younger has had its little games to prove if you're punk or not. My cousin in New York plays 'Chickie',<br>

which is two cars heading towards each other at about 80 miles an hour. The first driver to swerve out of the way is of<br>

course the chicken. On the Lower Eastside they'd make you press a lit cigarette onto your forearm and have it burn all the<br>

way up to the filter without the slightest flinch. Here, in upper Manhattan, guys jump off cliffs into the Harlem river where<br>

the water is literally shitty because right nearby are the giant sewer deposits where about half a million toilets empty<br>

their goods daily."<br>
