Jim bet Freddie that he wouldn't sing "Fried Chicken" at the end of the song but he did and Jim was most surprised. Then he apparently got him to leave it in and the rest is history. Of some sort.

Along with Eric "I'm really Killer Queen" Hall...

"Normally i can't dance to save my life. But as soon as I step in dog shit, I can moonwalk better than Michael Jackson."
Considering that Jim Hutton is not a very good source to rely on, I'll go with what Phoebe (Peter Freestone to you newbies) said in his book. The band would sometimes get bored recording and would do a lot of funny stuff (watch the One Vision documentary on GVH2) and maybe on a whim, Freddie said the line we all know and love and decided to keep it but never bothered to officially change the lyric. And if anyone still quests after changed lyrics, Machines (Or Back To Humans) has a slight alteration. "It ain't no place for rock n roll" was originally (according to the US CD booklet) "It ain't no place for you and me."

Goodbye April lady, It's been good to have you around - Goodbye April lady, You've done a lot for the folks in this town...
Fried Chicken, is a joke that Freddie was made, and so, he put on lyrics of the song. But i don't know what mean.
You and me we got Staying Power...
