Boom, Like That Songtext
von Dire Straits

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

Oh, my name is not Croc, it′s Kroc with a K
Oh, like crocodile but not spelled that way now
It's dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Kroc style, boom, like that

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
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


Wham bam don't wait long
Shake, fries, patty, you′re gone
And how about that friendly name, heck
Every little thing gotta stay the same

Oh, my name is not Croc, 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 now
Oh, it's dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Kroc style, boom, like that

You gentlemen ought to expand
You′re gonna need a helping hand now
So gentlemen, well, what about me?
We'll make a little business history now

Oh, my name's not Croc, 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

Well, we′ll build it up and I'll 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


I got the name, I need the town
Sell up in the end and it all shuts down
Sometimes you gotta be an 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, go straight to hell
I smell that meat hook smell

Oh, my name is not Croc, that's Kroc with a K
Well, like crocodile but not spelt that way now
Oh, it′s dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Dog eat dog, rat eat rat now
Oh, it's dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Kroc style, boom, like that
