Lyrics
(Intro)

When I was a little boy
I went to McDonalds just for the toy
Hamburgers were my favorite thing to eat
Then I found out they're made of fake meat

Them fast food burgers are full of grease
You eat too much you'll get obese
They're food is really nasty and gross
After eating it feels like a drug overdose

Them chicken nuggets taste like rubber
They'll make your belly look like flubber
Their french fries are very deeply fried
Quite often you'll find something green inside


Them fast food burgers are full of grease
You eat too much you'll get obese
Their products are stuffed with fat and oil
Their food makes my tase buds recoil

The workers there don't do the chores
they leave the food all on the floor
There's ketchup smeared all on the table
It sometimes smells like a horse's stable

(Break)

Them fast food burgers are full of grease
It's so bad you should call the police
Their products are stuffed with fat and oil
As of months ago they'd already spoiled

To eat fast food you don't gotta be wealthy
But you'd better know that it's sure not healthy
Burgers and fries could be your downfall
They got a weeks worth of sodium and cholesterol
ALRIGHT

(Break)

Them fast food burgers are full of grease
You eat too much you'll get obese
Their products are stuffed with fat and oil
What you think is meat is probably tin foil

The conditions are so unsanitary
I caution you be very wary
Take my warning and stay away
At least remember this before you get a fish fillet

(Break)

HERE WE GO
Them fast food burgers are full of grease
You eat too much you'll get obese
Their food is stuffed with oil and fat
Last time in my burger I found a rat

Their burgers have chicken, sheep, horse, and duck
They've been known to mix in a hockey puck
Here's a trait only seen in American folk
They'll get a large burger, jumbo fries, and diet coke

(Break)

Them fast food burgers are full of grease
You eat too much you'll get obese
Their products are stuffed with fat and oil
Their food makes my tase buds recoil

(Break)

Yeah

Good Topic!
Post the lyrics, it always enhances listening enjoyment to be able to follow the written lyrics. Nice opening rhythm riff.

good composition
Nice song, well composed... but you need a new mic, when you sing you've got a strange noise backwards...

them fast food burgers!
great lyrics and even better composition. impressive. but look into the new mic. or if your in garageband, you should be able to clean up some of that hiss with the EQ or vocal transformer.

welcome to macjams...
...a good first post...I agree with the others. I think the hiss issue could be addressed...
The use of GB loops is very evident here, but despite this, the piece has been put together rather well...
...erm, this song also reminds me of a movie...! *)

Cheers!

great startup
I like the Jamaican pace. As others have spotted, the mic noise is heavy; it is empasised by th on-off of the noise.

Keep 'em coming!

Welcome to MacJams!
I agree with the others here - nice opening riff, and well composed. It may be just me, but it sounds like you've got some clipping in the intro.

Don't think it's a bacd mic, just lots of background noise. Are you perhaps recording too close to the computer? You've got the 'empty-studio' sound to your vox - I know this sounds weird, but if you're short on space and can't get further away from the computer, try recording under a blanket - it helps cut out background noise and stops the 'empty-studio' side effect. There is also the 'off-click' sound at the end - sort of adds to the piece, actually, but when recording, try to let the recording of your voice run on for a little bit - then when it comes to putting it all together, you can cut the end off the recording of your voice, and so cut off the click, but not your voice. And there's nothing wrong with using loops, but if you have GB (and if you do, I'm very jealous) then make the most of it. Obviously, I don't have GB, so I'm not going to get into what you can do there, but you have tons of options available to you. Excellent first post, and looking forward to more!

Hah
This is why I only eat range-fed beef ;)

I agree the vocals sound a bit 'removed' from the rest of the mix.
You have a knack for catchy lyrics!

(but don't let McD's lawyers hear this one ;)

nice way
to put cool lyrics to many different composed loops
DOCTORBIZARRE said 1055 days ago (January 7th, 2007)
NOICE SPICE!
Cool composition! Fake meat! The lyrics are funny! The flow of the lyrics are not really there! I would leave it as an instrumental. You don't really have the voice for it!

Funny and straight to the point. Well done for a first composition. I'd have to agree with the others re: getting a new mic.

Alls I can say is...
I was thoroughly entertained! I'm listening on a crappier than crappy (as in, one itty bitty computer speaker), so can't comment on the quality of things.

All I can say is, that I smiled a phat one throughout the entire piece. Thanks! Macca

Rhythm and blues, eh... Who cares, huh...

thoughts from the bull...
as one who never enters those places, for exactly the reasons you mention, this piece just reaffirms why i prefer to eat better.

when i was a kid, my folks took us there all the time. there were
no toys for kids back then, so you got what you got and were happy.

in fact, there were no happy meals. it was just food, and honestly,
it was pretty good back then.

but now.... ewwsh! fun song - thank you! go pats!
