Joely's Drive-Through Mix-Up

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Joely rolled up to the speaker one day, Had her whole order rehearsed on the way. The menu was shining, the line moving slow, She took one deep breath and was ready to go. [Pre-Chorus] The worker said, “Hi, what can I get you today?” Joely opened her mouth—then the words ran away! [Chorus] “Large six chicken sandwich—er, a large six! Chicken McChicken nuggets, please—meal!” The speaker went quiet, then crackled with cheer, “Sure, Joely, I think I got your order here!” Large six, small words, big mix-up appeal, Joely’s drive-through order became the meal deal! [Verse 2] She meant one sandwich, some nuggets on side, But the sentence took a roller-coaster ride. “Was that six sandwiches?” the worker asked twice, Joely said, “No, wait—yes—hold on—sounds nice?” [Pre-Chorus] She tried to explain, but she tangled the phrase, Then laughed so hard she forgot what to say. [Chorus] “Large six chicken sandwich—er, a large six! Chicken McChicken nuggets, please—meal!” The speaker went quiet, then crackled with cheer, “Sure, Joely, I think I got your order here!” Large six, small words, big mix-up appeal, Joely’s drive-through order became the meal deal! [Bridge] At the pickup window, she practiced once more: “One chicken sandwich, nuggets—” then laughed at the door. The bag came out, and the order was right, Joely gave a thumbs-up and drove off delighted. [Final Chorus] “Large six chicken sandwich—er, a large six! Chicken McChicken nuggets, please—meal!” Now every time Joely pulls up in line, She says it so clearly—or mostly just fine! Large six, small words, big mix-up appeal, Joely’s drive-through order became the meal deal! [Outro] One sandwich, some nuggets, a grin ear to ear— “Thanks!” said Joely. “I nailed it… I think!”
