Boom, Like That

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
