I had a roomie in school named Albert J. Corda, alias Nova (after a hack program he wrote whose horrid memory is sure to outlive him). Anyway, Nova was quite a character; a prolific satyric lyricist, physicist, hacker, and all around lunatic. As a high school student, he work at a Macdonalds in darkest Connecticut. During the "you deserve a break today" ad campaign, his crew would perform the following production number, complete with full choreography, sometimes on the hour, for the customers. There were several more verses, but I regret that I only remember the following swatch. You have to envision guys in McD's suits dancing with mops... grab a bucket and mop fill the bins up with slop throw some meat on the floor burn the buns up some more we got golden brown fries (we got! we got!) but the fumes hurt your eyes we got chocolate shakes too but they taste like beef stew Gimma a break today, get up and get away.

By the way, Mr. Manilow also wrote the "I'm a Pepper, You're a Pepper" jingle.
