Amidst the hubbub Frank Ocean caused due to the releases of his Endless and Blonde projects, Frank set up several “pop up shops” throughout the planet which contained the magazine Boys Don’t Cry. Those who purchased the magazine were treated to an alternate, physical copy of Blonde… and an oddball prose from Kanye West.

And it was called “The McDonald’s Man.” Seriously. And it was sent to Frank via text message. Because genius.

McDonald’s Man McDonald’s Man
The french fries had a plan
The french fries had a plan
The salad bar and the ketchup made a band
Cus the french fries had a plan
The french fries had a plan
McDonald’s Man
McDonald’s
I know them french fries have a plan
I know them french fries have 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
McDonald’s Man
McDonald’s Man
McDonald’s, 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
Even the McRib was jealous of the fries
I could see it through his artificial meat eyes
And he only be there some of the time
Everybody was jealous of them french fries
Except for that one special guy
That smooth apple pie

“The McDonald’s Man”
Calabassas, California
Text by Kanye West

UPDATE: Since the world was waiting, here’s Joey Bada$$ reciting the poem during a sit down with Hot 97’s Megan Ryte.
