Eat Randy

The menu at this restaurant
Has everything you'd ever want,
But nothing that quite fancies me.
I do not want the steak bernese,
I do not want the duck flambe,
These specials don't sound "special" to me.
I'd rather eat Randy.
I'd rather eat Randy.
I'd rather eat Randy, Randy, Randy.
I'd rather eat Randy, Randy, Randy.
[Verse 2]
God is great, God is good.
Let us thank Him for this Randy. Amen.
Randy is a three-course meal,
Plus dessert to seal the deal.
Oh, and I'll be needing a to-go box.
[Chorus]
I'd rather eat Randy.
I'd rather eat Randy.
I'd rather eat Randy, Randy, Randy.
I'd rather eat Randy, Randy, Randy.
[Spoken]
Happy Birthday, Randy.
Randy, it's so good to see you.
Would you like to ride my bicycle?
Randy, wish me a happy anniversary, would you?
Randy, would you like to go on a picnic with me?
Randy.
We're so proud of you Randy.
Eat, Randy.
Eat, Randy.
Eat, Randy.
Eat, Randy.
Eat, Randy.
Eat, Randy.
Eat, Randy.
Eat, Randy.
Eat Randy.
Eat Randy.
Eat Randy.
Eat Randy.
Eat Randy.
[Chorus]
I'd rather eat Randy.
I'd rather eat Randy.
I'd rather eat Randy, Randy, Randy.
I'd rather eat Randy, Randy, Randy.
I'd rather eat Randy.
I'd rather eat Randy.
I'd rather eat Randy, Randy, Randy.
I'd rather eat Randy, Randy, Randy.
The lyrics to Julian Smith's song "Eat Randy" are both comical and creepy. It tells the story of the singer walking into a restaurant with a menu that has everything, yet nothing seems appetizing. In frustration, the singer exclaims that he would rather eat Randy, with a compelling chorus that repeats itself. Randy is referred to as a three-course meal with dessert to seal the deal, and he even needs a to-go box because he's so filling. The spoken bits in the song further highlight the obsession with Randy, with birthday wishes, bike rides, and picnic invites.
The phrase "I'd rather eat Randy" is an absurd and extreme expression of dissatisfaction towards regular food options. The fact that Randy is referred to as a meal seems satirical and uncomfortable, as if the character is almost cannibalistic. The song uses humor to address the unpleasantness of mundane or expected choices, with a seemingly random character as the solution.

It's the Predatory Narcissist mentality. Idealize, Devalue, Discard. Pump N Dump Investment. A modern Hansell and Gretel with the boy being fattened up to eat.
We're so proud of you Randy. - LoveBomb / Idealize
But then Randy is devalued from pet to farm animal. He doesn't realize, he's been conditioned, the predator has his trust.
And finally the discard of Randy via consumption: now eat randy, eat randy, eat randy.
No doubt he saw big businesses doing this shit to others.
But the best part of this video is you, the viewer are the woman he was dating. Meanwhile everyone else is fine with what he's doing.
Almost like you're a new hire in a company and some Narcissist has made others his flying monkeys

It's crazy to think channels like this don't really exist anymore because of the hyper focus on short form and low effort media
Oha Wawe
At least Value select is still keeping the spirit of those channels alive ✊️

I think channels like this died before that when Youtube favored long form content (10 minutes plus).
MananaMan
@Yel Yeah you're right, crazy to think it flip flopped so hard
The Stranger
Back when creativity mattered more than the algorithm 😢. The good ole days
Yel
@MananaMan It really has. Crazy to think youtube has so much history already and we (assume you too) have been part of it.

It's Randy's pure joy at the prospect of being cannibalized that gets me.

It's a different kind of fetish, ain't it?
