There are three possible answers The first is that chicken's heads don't get eaten, but oxtails do. The second is that it is better to look forward than to look behind. The third is that it is better to not be eaten, than to be eaten, unless you're in bed!

p.s. This is the first fortune I've ever run across that does not make sense when you add, "in bed".
