Cool. My moment of synchronicity came not ten seconds after posting my rap here. I pushed 'Send' and on the radio came Mark Knopfler singing: I'm going to San Bernardino ring-a-ding-ding Milkshake mixers...that's my thing These guys bought a heap of my stuff And I gotta see a good thing sure enough Folks line up all down the street I'm seeing this girl devour her meat And then I get it -- wham -- as clear as day My pulse begins to hammer then I hear a voice say: These boys have got this down Ought to be one of these in every town These boys have got the touch It's clean as a whistle And it don't cost much Wham bam don't wait long Shake, fries, patty, you're gone How's about that friendly name, Heck, every little thing Gotta stay the same Or my name is not Kroc, that's Kroc with a K Like crocodile but not spelled that way It's dog eat dog, rat eat rat Kroc style -- boom like that You gentlemen ought to expand You're gonna need a helping hand So gentlemen, well what about me? We'll make a little business history Oh my name is Kroc, but call me Ray Like crocodile but not spelled that way It's dog eat dog, rat eat rat Kroc style -- boom like that Well we build it up and I buy 'em out But man, they made me grind it out They open up a new place flippin' meat So I do too, right across the street I got the name, I need the town, They sell up in the end And it all shuts down Sometimes you gotta be an S.O.B. If you wanna make a dream reality Competition? Sent 'em south, If they're gonna drown Put a hose in their mouth Do not pass Go, go straight to hell I smell that meat hook smell Or my name is not Kroc, that's Kroc with a K Like crocodile but not spelled that way It's dog eat dog, rat eat rat Kroc style -- boom like that Ohh it's dog eat dog and rat eat rat Kroc style -- boom like that :-) To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'
