Ain't found a way to kill me yet
Eyes burn with stinging sweat
Seems every path leads me to nowhere
Wife and kids household pet
Army green was no safe bet
The bullets scream to me from somewhere

Here they come to snuff the rooster
Yeah here come the rooster, yeah
You know he ain't gonna die
No, no, no, ya know he ain't gonna die

Walkin' tall machine gun man
They spit on me in my home land
Gloria sent me pictures of my boy
Got my pills 'gainst mosquito death
My buddy's breathin' his dyin' breath
Oh god please won't you help me make it through

Here they come to snuff the rooster
Yeah here come the rooster, yeah
You know he ain't gonna die
No, no, no ya know he ain't gonna die

    This song is about a guy who wants to open a KFC but he can't find anyone to kill the chickens. So, he tries to do it himself and finds it mentality disturbing. He in turn hires a crew to do it. When the crew shows up he yelled, here they come to snuff the roosters. He ended up making millions. I don't know, it's either about that or Jerry Cantrell's dad and Vietnam.
