Coke Fry And a Cheeseburger
KJ-52 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You know what?
Rolled up to the place to be
I pulled right up to the Mickey C's
I got three cars in front of me
and man I'm feeling hungry now
Tell you what I gotta do
as I started pullin through
he said, "Sorry man, I ain't hearing you.."
A coke a fry and a cheeseburger
say that's all that I want to order
Just a coke a fry and a cheeseburger
say that's all that I want
(x2)
He said, "Can you repeat that?"
So I began to scream back
Just a number two with a cheese stack
Now can you make that please fast?
Well let me repeat that back to you
Chicken burrito with a mountain dew
With two whoppers and a bean stew
Is there anything else I can get for you?
A coke a fry and a cheeseburger
say that's all that I want to order
Just a coke a fry and a cheeseburger
say that's all that I want
(x2)
All I want is just a burger man
Forty times I think I told ya now
Really bro I ain't getting older
See I know my food be gettin colder now
All this junk I had enough
Well finally I just drove up with
All the trouble, what's the hold up?
Gave me a bag with a paper cup and..
A coke a fry and a cheeseburger
say that's all that I want to order
Just a coke a fry and a cheeseburger
say that's all that I want
(x2)
Now I ain't ate like all day
So I gave him the money and drove away
When I reached in the bag and I'm about to take
Just a big old bite and I can't wait now
Where's the fries I'm supposed to have?
Where's the burger I'm supposed to grab?
Just right then I started gettin mad
Dang bro there ain't nothin in the bag
A coke a fry and a cheeseburger
say that's all that I want to order
Just a coke a fry and a cheeseburger
say that's all that I want
(x2)
In the song "Coke Fry And a Cheeseburger," KJ-52 tells the story of his experience at a McDonald's drive-thru. He's feeling hungry and wants to order a Number Two, which is a cheeseburger meal that comes with fries and a drink. However, the person taking his order can't hear him, so KJ-52 begins to yell and repeats his order several times. Finally, he receives his food but discovers that something's missing. He doesn't have fries or a burger, just a coke.
The lyrics in this song explore the frustration and disappointment that can come with fast food. KJ-52 uses humor to describe his situation, but the message is clear: sometimes we don't get what we want, even when we pay for it. The repetition of the chorus emphasizes this point, highlighting the simplicity of his order and the lack of effort required to fulfill it.
Overall, "Coke Fry And a Cheeseburger" is a catchy, fun song that touches on themes of consumerism and customer service. It reminds listeners that sometimes the things we desire most are not always within reach, and that we must be prepared to accept disappointment along the way.
