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
Or my name is not Kroc, that's Krok with a K
Like crocodile but not spelled that way now
Its dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Krok style - Boom, like that
The folks line up all down the street
And I'm seeing this girl devour her meat now
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, Oughtta 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, you don't wait long, Shake, fries, patty, your gone
And how about that friendly name? Heck, every little thing oughtta stay the same
Or my name is not Kroc, that's Krok with a K
Like crocodile but not spelled that way now
Its dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Dog eat dog, rat eat rat now
Ohh its dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Krok style - Boom, like that
You gentlemen ought to expand
You're going to need a helping hand now
So gentlemen well what about me?
We'll make a little business history, now
Or my name is not Kroc, call me Ray
Like crocodile but not spelled that way now
Its dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Krok style - Boom, like that
Well we build it up and I buy 'em out
But man they made me grind it out now
They open up a new place flipping meat
So I do too, right across the street
I got the name but I need the town, they sell up in the end and it all shuts down
Sometimes you gotta be a S.O.B.; you wanna make a dream reality
Competition send 'em south, if they're gonna drown put a hose in their mouth
Do not pass go straight to hell, I smell that meat hook smell
Or my name is not Kroc, that's Krok with a K
Like crocodile but not spelled that way now
Ohh its dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Dog eat dog, rat eat rat now
Ohh its dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Krok style - Boom, like that
