Carl Jr Steps Into The Ring

Hardee walked into the room,
said, “Carls, let’s get our piece.
Jr’s waiting just outside.
Let Jr off his leash.
Let him take the Whopper on.
He can take the Big Mac too.
Get ’em both inside the ring,
see what the kid can do.

Carls, he answered, “Partner,
looks like you got a plan.
The clown, the King are fighting.
It’s more than they can stand.
Show ’em we can grill the best,
and we can fight ’em too.
Bring Carl Jr in the fight
so he can crush a few.”

“Tell ‘em bets are ten to one.
We’ll take on all the bets.
Jr against all takers.
They ain’t seen nothin’ yet.
He’s bound to take the Whopper down.
He’ll whip the Big Mac too,
Send the clown a runnin’,
and shut up the King’s spew.”
