Frank Ocean’s new album Blonde is accompanied by a zine dubbed, Boys Don’t Cry. Found inside the zine are original works from Tom Sachs, Tyrone Lebon, Wolfgang Tillman, and Kanye West, who contributed a poem about — wait for it — McDonald’s.
The poem — entitled “The McDonald’s Man” — includes photographs of Kanye driving through a McDonald’s drive-thru in his Lamborghini, shot by Nabil. Read the poem and see the photographs below.
The McDonald’s Man
Calabassas, California
McDonalds man
McDonalds man
The French fries had a plan
The French fries had a plan
The salad bad and the ketchup made a band
Cus the French fries had a plan
The French fries had a plan
McDonalds man
McDonalds man
I know them French fries had a plan
I know them French fries had a plan
The cheeseburger and the shakes formed a band
To overthrow the French fries plan
I always knew them French fries was evil man
Smelling all good and shit
I don’t trust no food that smells that good man
I don’t trust it
I just can’t
McDonalds man
McDonalds man
McDonalds, damn
Them French fries look good tho
I knew the diet Coke was jealous of the fries
I knew the McNuggets was jealous of the fries
I could see it through his artificial meat eyes
And he only be there some of the time
Everyone was jealous of them French fries
Expect for that one special guy
That smooth apple pie
