Could anyone confirm what words the choir sing in the middle of Death Trip, please?

It sounds like "All the boys say run like a chicken run, you'll take some licking son, run, run run."

This has been bugging me since I first heard the song in the mid seventies. The question was published in a music paper in 1975 but was never answered.

Many thanks.

That sounds about right to me except I thought it was "All the boys say you run like a chicken runs...."

ME AND MY MATES USED TO SING 'ALL THE BOYS SAY RUN FROM THE BATTY MAN' THOUGH WE KNEW IT WASN'T RIGHT IT MADE US LAUGH.

the only thing i can add to this, is this ,i have just listened to this 4 times through headphones and without a doubt part of the lyric is SUN SUN SUN (not RUN)and being operatic it could even be italian ,However i have just contacted a close relative of ANDREW POWELL who did the orchestral arrangments on the first two REBEL albums,if anyone knows it will be him ,if i hear anything ill post it here as soon as poss

I ALWAYS THOUGHT IT WAS SON SON SON ? RATHER THAN SUN SUN SUN

Yes. Definitely son son son.
