(tempo increases with each stanza)

       C             G              F          C
Well a pheasant is a bird, and they need to be plucked
F           C                  G                   C
After being slaughtered, and before they're put on trucks
                             F
And you probably don't think much of me
       G
Just a lonely pheasant plucker at the pheasant factory

       C         G               F          C
But my life as a mother pheasant plucker is pleasant
     F            C          G            C
Just listening to music as I pluck mother pheasants
                                      F
I'm a pleasant pheasant plucker and nobody's ever heard
           G
A pleasant mother pheasant plucker like me say the F-word

      C           G               F            C
And I come from a mother pheasant plucking family
         F               C              G          C
From the mother pheasant plucking plantation in Italy
                                F
And the days were hard, and the nights were long
      G
So to keep their spirits high they sang this song:

              C         G               F          C
They sang our life as a mother pheasant plucker is pleasant
     F            C          G            C
Just listening to music as I pluck mother pheasants
                                      F
I'm a pleasant pheasant plucker and nobody's ever heard
           G
A pleasant mother pheasant plucker like me say the F-word

       C            G               F          C
And my mother was a mother pheasant plucker as well
        F                  C                G           C
And she loved to pluck the mother pheasants yes I could tell
                                      F
And she sang this song as she plucked all day long
    G
She never ever ever got the lyrics wrong

            C         G               F          C
She sang my life as a mother pheasant plucker is pleasant
     F            C          G            C
Just listening to music as I pluck mother pheasants
                                      F
I'm a pleasant pheasant plucker and nobody's ever heard
           G
A pleasant mother pheasant plucker like me say the F-word

           C         G               F          C
Because my life as a mother pheasant plucker is pleasant
     F            C          G            C
Just listening to music as I pluck mother pheasants
                                      F
I'm a pleasant pheasant plucker and nobody's ever heard
           G
A pleasant mother pheasant plucker like me say the F-word
