Or more lyrics by the same band:

Ain't no bunk. Chicken Funk. This ain't no bunk. Chicken Funk. Huh!

Edited to add small clue: The Mississippi sax player in the first song, and lead vocals in the seconds song was invited, along with his new band, to perform in the chorus of "We Are The World" a mere ten years later. He got promoted to a solo vocal spot when Prince chickened/flaked out in the wee hours of the night.

Second clue: The band's best-known album isn't its own album and the band isn't even in the credits. The band played back up on Elvis Costello's first album, but for contractual reasons, couldn’t be credited; the were initially identified as The Shamrocks in publicity releases (which is another amusing clue).
