Fries on the side and a thick milkshake too
Burger King, McDonald’s, Wendy’s rule
I guess it’s that they are all fast food
But the weight gain cannot be true

‘Cause I have an apple a day
To keep the fat far away
But I am ten pounds heavier today

Oh but one more Big Mac
Maybe, a late night snack
I promise one more Dunkin’s, and I’ll be through
Oh, I was trying to be good, ignoring that Taco Bell
Because I really want this diet to work out too.
Oh, I need you
I will always crave you
Hanging out in the drive thru

Just a dollar looking for another
Brown bags of fast food that I love
When the fries are so greasy
They go down so easy
Mmm love them when they’re cheesy

Oh, I need you
I will always crave you
Hanging out in the drive thru

On the side of twinkies, cinnamon buns, and those devil dogs too
I love the white, creamy filling that spits out at you
And I love the nachos, potato chips, and fritos
But now the weight gain is back again
So let’s skip the hot fudge sundae
And scoop down to where the m&m’s are no longer hiding at last

Oh but one more Big Mac
Maybe, a late night snack
I promise one more Dunkin’s, and I’ll be through
Oh, I was trying to be good, ignoring that Taco Bell
Because I really want this diet to work out too.
Oh, I need you
I will always crave you
Hanging out in the drive thru

Just a dollar looking for another
Brown bags of fast food that I love
When the fries are so greasy
They go down so easy
Mmm love them when they’re cheesy

Oh, I need you
I will always crave you
Hanging out in the drive thru

Please don’t be mean
Because I can already smell that steam
And my cravings are starting to scream
And my love is for fast, fast food

So give me a little time to snack down like that St. Puft Marshmallow dude
Fries on the side and a thick milkshake too
Burger King, McDonalds, Wendys rule
I guess it’s that they are all fast food
But the weight gain cannot be true
‘Cause

Oh, I need you
I will always crave you
Hanging out in the drive thru

Just a dollar looking for another
Brown bags of fast food that I love
When the fries are so greasy
They go down so easy
Mmm love them when they’re cheesy

Oh, I need you
I will always crave you
Hanging out in the drive thru

Oh, I need you
I will always crave you
Hanging out in the drive thru
