Fast Food
Richard Thompson

Big mac, small mac, burger and friesImage_renaissance_big_mac

Shove ’em in boxes all the same size

Easy on the mustard, heavy on the sauce

Double for the fat boy, eats like a horse.
…………..

Fry them patties and send ’em right through

Microwave oven going to fry me too

Can’t lose my job by getting in a rage

Got to get my hands on that minimum wage.
…………..

Shove it in their faces, give ’em what they want

Got to make it fast, it’s a Fast Food Restaurant.
…………..

Shake’s full of plastic, meat’s full of worms

Everything’s zapped so you won’t get germs

Water down the ketchup, easier to pour on

Pictures on the register in case you’re a moron.
…………..

Keep your uniform clean, don’t talk back

Blood down your shirt going to get you the sack

Sugar, grease, fats and starches

Fine to dine at the golden arches.
…………..

Shove it in their faces, give ’em what they want

Got to make it fast, it’s a Fast Food Restaurant.
…………..

Baby thrown up, booth number 9

Wash it down, hose it down, happens all the time

Cigarettes in the coffee, contact lens in the tea

I’d rather feed pigs than humanity.
…………..

Shove it in their faces, give ’em what they want

Got to make it fast, it’s a Fast Food Restaurant.
