The Meat Song (Donna Lewis Parody)
A Parody of Donna Lewis' 'I Love You Always Forever' about Checkers and Meat in General, was my first hand written parody, although not the first I sang.
A man writing parodies just because. .singing and writing is fun
I write parodies for fun and record them because I love performing. Check out my website at badave.com for more info! In case anyone is curious, my backing tracks are created by and used with permission by karaoke-version.com/en. They make some really cool karaoke tracks and are very approachable people.
Story behind the song
I actually never intended on recording this song, much less for it to be one of my more popular downloads. The Meat Song is a parody of Donna Lewis' hit song "I Love You Always Forever", so many love songs between that one, Love Fool (Jewell) and I'll Make Love to You (Boys II Men) I figured, why not parody one. My friend John, who worked at Checkers at the time, heard me singing it, and enjoyed what he heard enough to make me actually write it down. . .alas, several years later Project 1 seemed a little light, and I decided I'd record it.
Lyrics
Feels like I'm eating too much meat
Light ham, turkey and provelone cheese
Feels like I'm lost in a meat market
Scorching on a grill, oh yes it smells so good
Those days of fruits and vegetables are gone
I want protein and ribeye steak
Secret pork chops covered in A1 sauce
I want light ham with mayo on wheat bread
I Eat Meat always forever
Nice and sweet it sticks together
Every day I'll eat at Checkers
If it's grilled it's always better
I Eat Meat always forever
Don't hate me, I don't wear leather
Some day soon you'll eat a burger
When you do you'll feel better
You've got the most unbelieveable chicken
It's so crispy just like KFC
So let's eat there
Sweet Burger King, salted fries with a shake
If I could work there, I'd bust my waist
I eat meat always forever
In my seat dreaming of cheddar
Now it's time, ham's got me wetter
Just eat meat, save all the flowers
We'll eat meat always forever
Big Ol' Beef, making me bigger
No berries, bread's not for dinner
Can't beat meat, puns not intended
Say you'll eat, eat meat forever
'Cause it's sweet, it sticks together
Everyday We'll eat at Checkers
It tastes better
Say you'll eat, eat meat forever
'Cause it's sweet, it sticks together
Everyday We'll eat at Checkers
It tastes better
Say you'll eat, eat meat forever
'Cause it's sweet, it sticks together
Everyday We'll eat at Checkers
It tastes better
Say you'll eat, eat meat forever
'Cause it's sweet, it sticks together
Everyday We'll eat at Checkers
It tastes better
I Eat Meat always forever
Nice and sweet it sticks together
Every day I'll eat at Checkers
If it's grilled it's always better
I Eat Meat always forever
Don't hate me, I don't wear leather
Some day soon you'll eat a burger
When you do you'll feel better
