Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm going to San Bernardino, ring-a-ding-ding
Milkshake mixers, that's my thing now
These guys bought a heap of my stuff
And I gotta see a good thing sure enough now
[Verse 2]
Or my name's not Kroc, that's Kroc with a K
Like crocodile but not spelled that way now
It's dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Kroc style, boom, like that
[Verse 3]
Folks line up all down the street
Now I'm seein' this girl devour her meat now
And then I get it, wham, as clear as day
My pulse begins to hammer then I see 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
[Verse 4]
Wham-bam don't wait long
Shake, fries, patty, you're gone
And how about that friendly name?
Heck, every little thing ought to stay the same
[Verse 5]
Or my name's not Kroc, that's Kroc with a K
Like crocodile but not spelled that way, now
It's dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Oh, it's dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Kroc style, boom, like that
[Verse 6]
You gentlemen ought to expand
You're gonna need a helpin' hand now
So gentlemen, well, what about me?
We'll make a little business history, now
[Verse 7]
Or my name's not Kroc, you can call me Ray
Like crocodile but not spelled that way, now
It's dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Kroc style, boom, like that
[Verse 8]
Well, we build it up, and I buy him out
But man, they made me grind it out, now
They open up a new place flippin' meat
So I do too, right across the street
[Verse 9]
I got the name, I need the town
They sell 'em in the end and it all shuts down
Sometimes you gotta be an S.O.B
You wanna make a dream a reality
[Verse 10]
Competition sent 'em south
They're gonna drown, put a hose in their mouth
Do not pass go, go straight to hell
I smell that meat hook smell
[Verse 11]
Or my name's not Kroc, that's Kroc with a K
Like crocodile but not spelled that way, now
Oh, it's dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Oh, it's dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Kroc style, boom, like that
