Kanye West’s ongoing culinary love affair with McDonald’s has been well documented.
And now the multi-platinum hip-hop superstar has written a poem inspired by his love for the fast food brand, titled “McDonalds Man.”
But his is a story of both love and hate as West wrote lines about his distrust of McDonald’s salty side order. “The French fries had a plan,” he wrote. “I always knew them French fries was evil, man… I don’t trust no food that smells that good, man.”
Here is the hip-hop superstar’s full McDonald’s-themed prose (via Stereogum):
McDonalds man
McDonalds 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
McDonalds man
McDonalds
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 sh–
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
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

VMAs 2015 Six years after "the incident," Yeezy and Swift are reunited on the VMA's stage -- this time for a different reason. The pop singer presented the rapper with the Vanguard Award. Clearly their friendship is in tact now... or so it seems.
