Song Lyrics
“And that’s how I got my new, uh, gold tooth.”
“Wow, thanks Timmy. What an amazing story!
Does anyone else have a story they’d like to share with the class?
Yes, you there in the back: B, what do you have to say?”
Hey!
I’ve been waiting; now it’s my turn to speak,
In my mind, the best place to eat is Burger Queen.
Their fries taste like heaven; well, I haven’t tasted heaven,
But if heaven had a taste, it would be these fries.
One day, walking easy, I sauntered in,
Thinking about the food I’d be ordering.
Suddenly the boss came over to me,
Said, “I thought you’d be here at quarter to three!
Now get on your uniform, you’re late!”
I said, “Wait, wait, sir, there must be a mistake!”
But he didn’t listen, he gave and provided me
With a uniform that said “Burger Queen.”
And then he brought me to the back,
The big room where they make all the snacks—imagine that.
He said, “First go make some fries!”
And I did what he said; I just complied.
I don’t know, I don’t know What I’ma do.
Whatever it is, whatever it is, You know it’s fine.
I don’t know, I don’t know What I’ma do.
Whatever it is, you know it’s fine,
Because I keep an open mind.
So I stood by the gigantic fry machine,
It was bigger than a truck or an SUV.
There were numerous buttons, lots to press,
And I was kind of confused, I must confess.
The whole machine had an aroma or smell,
Kind of like chicken, but like chocolate as well.
Now I’m very industrious; I work hard,
So I got right down to my job—you feel me?
Now I assumed and believed without being told,
That I needed to chop some potatoes.
But then I had an idea: As long as I’m making fries,
I might as well make them into shapes so wild.
So I cut some fries in the shape of a heart,
The shape of a goat, the shape of a shark.
As long as people can eat them and they’re edible,
I’m thinking these fries will be incredible.
When the boss saw the fries, he came over to me,
Saying, “A shark-shaped fry, you must be crazy!
You think my customers want to eat sharks?
You think my customers want to eat hearts?”
But right then he heard something; he was surprised,
A customer said, “Can I get more shark-shaped fries?”
The boss said, “I guess they like your fry animals,
Can you come in tomorrow; are you available?
Are you free and ready?” I said, “Well, buddy,
Do you need a new assistant manager?”
“Yeah!” And that’s how I went, in just one day,
From customer to nearly running the place.
