CHICKEN LICKEN

AS Chicken-licken was going one day to the wood, whack! an acorn fell from a tree
on to his head.


"Gracious goodness me!" said Chicken-licken, "the sky must have fallen; I must go
and tell the King."


So Chicken-licken turned back, and met Hen-len. "Well, Hen-len, where are you
going ?" said he. "I'm going to the wood," said she.


"Oh, Hen-len, don't go!" said he, "for as I was going the sky fell on to my head, and
I'm going to tell the King."


So Hen-len turned back with Chicken-licken, and met ****-lock.


"I'm going to the wood," said he.


Then Hen-len said:' "Oh ****-lock, don't go, for I was going, and I met Chicken-licken, and Chicken-licken had been at the wood, and the sky had fallen on to his head, and we are going to tell the King."


So ****-lock turned back, and they met Duck-luck. "


Well, Duck-luck, where are you going?"


And Duck-luck said: "I'm going to the wood."


Then ****-lock said: "Oh! Duck-luck, don't go, for I was going, and I met Hen-len,
and Hen-len met Chicken-licken, and Chicken-licken had been at the wood, and the
sky had fallen on to his head, and we are going to tell the King." So Duck-luck turned
back,and met Drake-lake.


"Well, Drake-lake, where are you going?"
And Drake-lake said: "I'm going to the wood."


Then Duck-luck said: "Oh! Drake-lake, don't go, for I was going, and I met ****-lock, and ****-lock met Hen-len, and Hen-len met Chicken-licken, and Chicken-licken
had been at the wood, and the sky had fallen on to his head, and, we are going to tell
the King."

So Drake-lake turned back, and met Goose-loose. "Well, Goose-loose, where are
you going?" And Goose-loose said: "I'm going to the wood."


Then Drake-lake said: "Oh, Goose-loose, don't go, for I was going, and I met Duck-
luck, and Duck-luck met ****-lock, and ****-lock met Hen-len, and Hen-len met
Chicken-licken, and Chicken-licken had been at the wood, and the sky had fallen on to
his head, and we are going to tell the King." So Goose-loose turned back, and met
Gander-lander.


"Well, Gander-lander, where are you going ?"


And Gander-lander said: "I'm going to the wood."


Then Goose-loose said: "Oh! Gander-lander, don't go, for I was going, and I met
Drake-lake, and Drake-lake met Duck-luck, and Duck-luck met ****-lock, and ****-
lock met Hen-len, and Hen-len met Chicken-licken, and Chicken-licken had been at the
wood, and the sky had fallen on to his head, and we are going to tell the King."


So Gander-lander turned back, and met Turkey-lurkey.


"Well, Turkey-lurkey, where are you going?"
And Turkey-lurkey said: "I'm going to the wood."

[dotjhawkes]

Then Gander-dander said: "Oh! Turkey-lurkey, don't go, for I was going, and I met
Goose-loose, and Goose-loose met Drake-lake, and Drake-lake met Duck-luck, and
Duck-luck met ****-lock, and ****-lock met Hen-len, and Hen-len met Chicken-licken,
and Chicken-licken had been at the wood, and the sky had fallen on to his head, and
we are going to tell the King."


So Turkey-lurkey turned back, and walked wiith Gander-lander, Goose-loose, Drake-
lake, Duck-luck, ****-lock, Hen-len, and Chicken-licken. And as they were going along, they met Fox-lox. And Fox-lox said:


"Where are you going ?"


And they said: "Chicken-licken went to the wood, and the sky fell on to his head, and
we are going to tell the King."


And Fox-lox said: "Come along with me, and I will show you the way." But Fox-lox took them into the fox's hole, and he and his young ones soon ate up poor Chicken-licken, Hen-len, ****-lock, Duck-luck, Drake-lake, Goose-loose,' Ganderdander, and Turkey-lurkey; and they never saw the King to tell him that the sky had fallen.

You will have to fill in the missing words, hey, this could be like a game! Yes it is based on Chicken licken but it is about aliens falling from the sky not acorns!

I remember watching watching an edition of Words and Pictures at school many years ago and the Chicken Licken story was on there. Chicken Little was a seperate (Channel 4?) children's television programme in itself.

I always thought that it sounded like a slogan for Kentucky Frioed Chicken "it's Chicken Licken' Good" or something like that...

Anyway as for your game of Blankety Blank, the answer is c�ck-l�ck. I claim my cheque book and pen.

As I recall, Chicken Lickin had a lady friend called Hen Len. There was something about an acron falling on his or her head. Not nice for children to be aware of. But then again these tyoe of stories have there dark sides.

Oh I loved Chicken Licken when I was young! Bet they don't all get eaten in the new version, Pah!
