I don't wanna be a chicken

I can't get over how much I love the city center accordionists. They just kill me. Yesterday was much like any other day. But as I passed these two old men with cheesy grins playing a duet I found it contagious. I probably looked utterly insane as I proceeded on my way. On my way out, however, my ears were greeted by a familiar tune... The Chicken Dance. They were at it again and goading a small boy on. A few wanderers had gathered to listen/watch and I have since found myself wondering if there are German lyrics to that tune. And if there are, are they equivalent to the English? Did the dance come first or the lyrics? And don't you dare ask if the chicken came before the egg because that's a ridiculous question. Obviously the chicken. I have my reasons.

I'm not sayin'; I'm just sayin'.
