Down At McDonaldz Lyrics

Closing is the gift to the night shift
And now you've got two minutes to go!
Swept up the floors, locked all the doors, lights out!
And now it's time to go

You hear the bounce and the bounce in the parking lot
And the night just got to a point where it's gonna blow
You were doing your best 'till you got punched in the chest
And the leader said: "There's something you oughta know."

[Pre-Chorus]
He said: "My people need a place to Go!" (Go!)
My people need a place to Go! (Go!)
People need a place to go
People need a place to go

[Chorus (X2)]
Now everybody down at McDonnellzzz
They down with Ronnell McDonnell
And now they hitting the bottle
And everybody cool!

You notice methods getting crude, language is rude
And you just wanna go!
All you wanna do is make it stop
So you call the cops, but the cops they never show

The leader sees your fear, so pulls you near
Says "Son - there's something you ought to know."
He said "Time ceases its marches at the golden arches
And that's what we're here for."

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus (X2)]

Cool!

The leader's gonna make you party
Preventing you from departing
The leader is the party
The party is the leader's mind

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus (X2)]

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus (X2)]

It's the leader's mind!
It's the leader's mind!
Yeah!
