The Lyrics

Thanks to Diva & Wild Man for unintenionally suggesting it. The original is one of my favorite songs of all time. Someday, I'll tell you how it's really about the Boston Red Sox.
City girls just seem to find out early
how to open beers with just a thumb.
A rich frat boy and she won't have to worry.
She'll let him pop the top and act real dumb.

Late at night, sorority house gets lonely.
I guess every delivery has its price.
And it breaks her heart to think her cash is only
given to a man whose sodas don't have ice.

So she tells them she must go out for the weekend
off to an old fat farm outside of town.
But they know where she's going as she's leaving.
She's headed for the Arches or the Crown.

You can't hide your flyin' fries.
And your smile has been ketchupized.
I thought by now, you'd realize
there ain't no way to hide your flyin' fries.

On the other side of town her boy is waiting
with painted eyes and hair that's red but not real.
And she drives on through the night anticipating
'cause ol' Ronald knows the way she likes to feel.

She purchases Big Macs without the lettuce.
She whispers it would only cramp her style.
She swears, "Cholesterol's not gonna get us."
She drives away with shake upon her smile.

You can't hide your flyin' fries.
And your smile has been ketchupized.
I thought by now, you'd realize
there ain't no way to hide your flyin' fries.

She gets up and pours herself a Coors Light
and stares out at the stars up in the sky.
Another ten pounds she's gained on this fortnight.
She counts her chins and hangs her head to cry.

She wonders how she ever got this heavy.
She thinks about Big Boy, her lunch at school.
Did she get tired, or just shaped like a Chevy?
She's so bogged down, she feels just like a fool.

My oh my, you sure know how to arrange things.
You set it up so well, so tastefully.
Ain't it funny how Dr. Phil sure couldn't change things.
You're still as fat as that girl Lewinsky.

And you can't hide your flyin' fries.
And your smile has been ketchupized.
I thought by now, you'd realize
there ain't no way to hide your flyin' fries.
There ain't no way to hide your flyin' fries.
Honey mustard on your flyin' fries.


Do I apologize for the possible T.A.T.U. reference in the second verse, or for mentioning Monica in the third? Do I apologize for insulting first the right (gay reference) and then the left (Clinton "scandal")? As James Carville would say, "The revolution does not stop for apologies."

I'm not sure how the comments pertain to the parody (Boston Red Sox - ?), but the parody is humorous.

Michael P-I wouldn't feel right if you apologized about anything. Someone's got to have an edge, it might as well be you.

The basic story line was a little confusing, but it was still hilarious. Shaped like a Chevy! Great line!

Besides having clever lyrics that keep you laughing, the syllable pacing actually works as you sing the song... Even with a mouth full of french fries.
