about

Originally written as a jingle for a fast food contest on the internet, it was never entered because I didn't finish in time.

So I rewrote the words to leave certain copyrighted chains and products out.

lyrics

VERSE1

They said 'what's the difference? They're all the same."
But I disagree.
They said "It's a big deal out of nothing."
But it's a big deal to me.
'cause there's only one place
that always puts a big smile on my face.

CHORUS
But I don't go there for the burgers
I don't go there for there greasy french fries.
I don't go there for the sodas.
All of those things are just my alibies
'cause the girl behind the counter
is where my hunger truly lies.
That's where it is.

VERSE2

They said "try somewhere different'
but that's ok
'cause it always fails.
'Cause nowhere else has her smile
her beautiful eyes or her ponytails.
'cause there's only one place
that always puts a big smile on my face.

CHORUS
But I Don't go there for the burgers
I don't go there for there greasy french fries.
I really should ask her out soon
or I'm the one that's gonna be super-sized
'cause the girl behind the counter
is where my hunger truly lies.

CHORUS
I Don't go there for the burgers
I don't go there for there greasy french fries.
I don't go there for the sodas.
All of that junk is just my alibies
'cause the girl behind the counter
is where my hunger truly lies.
That's where it is.

It's time to eat..it's time to eat
It's time to eat..it's time to eat
It's time to eat..it's time to eat
'cause that's where my hunger truly lies.
That's where it is.
It's where my hunger truly lies.
