Big Chief Chinese Restaurant

(R. Pollard-J. Pollard-Demos) Introducing the amazing rockethead You know what the deal is dude Excuse me Napoleon But I gotta know Why I gotta stand In a hallway In a highway Where nothing goes my way Well I'm going out Well I'm going in To the Big Chief's place Gonna slap his factory down
