Dead Skunk in the Middle of the Road - Loudon Wainwright III

Cr^Gossing the highway ^Dlate last night, He ^Cshoulda looked left and he ^Gshoulda looked right. He ^Gdidn't see the station ^Dwagon car. The ^Cskunk got squashed and ^Gthere you are.

CHORUS:

You got your ^Gdead skunk in the ^Dmiddle of the road ^CDead skunk in the ^Gmiddle of the road ^GDead skunk in the ^Dmiddle of the road (And it's) ^CStinking to high ^Gheaven

Take a ^Gwhiff on me. That ^Dain't no rose. ^CRoll up your window and ^Ghold your nose. You ^Gdon't have to look and you ^Ddon't have to see 'Cause you can ^Cfeel it in your ol^Gfactory.

(chorus)

Yeah, you ^Ggot your dead cat and you ^Dgot your dead dog. On a ^Cmoonlit night you got your ^Gdead toad frog. You got your ^Gdead rabbit and your ^Ddead raccoon. The ^Cblood and the guts, they gonna ^Gmake you swoon.

(chorus) C'mon, stink You got it. It's dead. It's in the middle. Dead skunk in the middle Dead skunk in the middle of the road Stinking to high heaven All over the road Technicolor Oh, you got pollution. It's dead. It's in the middle, And it's stinkin' to high heaven.
