The Lyrics

Based on when we saw Martin Yan at the Northpoint Mall in Alpharetta Georgia in 2007. Includes other funny things there over the years, didn't all happen during the recording
Yan we saw him at the mall
Yan can cook
He made a funny joke,
About using Pennzoil to cook
And Yan he cooked some tasty food
Cut stuff fast
Marjoram is not margarine
Wonder why name's similar

A cooking special, filmed at the mall
He was so funny, people had a ball
We might have gotten on camera that day
Never saw it on tv, a shame

It's Yan uses veggies a lot
No essence
Think about the orange, wonder how it feels right now
It's Yan he's so entertaining
No throwdown
He knows what he's doing and then he says that you can cook too

We didn't know he was gonna be there
Already filming, pulled up a chair
Was a nice surprise, he answered some questions
Didn't get to, eat any food, bummer

Yan, ignores old snoring guy
That was nice
Sometimes casts from shows also visit that mall to meet fans
And Yan he did a good live show
At the Mall
He threw it all together, and improvised really well

Finally a chef who uses enough spices
Although he may use too many rices
He drizzles lots of stuff on the food
Flavors galore, you'll make sounds so rude

It's Yan
Yan

Then someone
Changed the channel in furniture store now it's loud static
It's Yan
Yan

Ignored it
It'll be fixed in editing
Funny things happen

Yan yeah he sure draws a crowd
Now robots
Wander out of the store, it's a
bit distracting now
And Yan just goes like usual
More powder
I hear someone playing Tetris, on display in the store nextdoor
Yan ignores banjo music
Further down
People play it in the store
Edit out
Yan jokes about distractions
His wok is going to be on the sink
Yan finished a good show
And after that they all feel like a drink
It's Yan
