Barenaked Ladies (often abbreviated BNL) is a Canadian alternative rock band currently composed of Jim Creeggan, Kevin Hearn, Ed Robertson, and Tyler Stewart, formerly featuring Andy Creeggan and Steven Page. Page left the band amicably in February 2009 to pursue solo projects, and March 7th, 2009 saw the band's first show on stage as a foursome in Orlando, Florida. Tyler Stewart proudly emblazoned his drum-set with a "Fantastic 4" logo. In March 2010, they released 'All In Good Time', their first post-Page studio album.

Here's a song that BNL only does in concert. There is one know recording of the song, it belongs to CFNY, the alternative music station in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Hope you like it. Sorry about the chord spacing.
MCDONALDS GIRL - Barenaked Ladies
DAG (quick A) D DAGAD I leave from softball practice every night DAGAD It's getting dark, but the "Golden Arches" light up the way DAG AD I turn the corner at the traffic light DAGABm I count my money and then I rehearse what I'm going to say BmEmBm "I'd like an order of fries, a quarter-pounder with cheese, BmEmA (hold) I love the light in your eyes, will you go out with me please?"
CHORUS: DAG I am in love with a McDonalds girl DAGAD She has a smile of innocence so tender and warm DAG I am in love with a McDonalds girl DAGAD She is an angel in a polyester uniform
She doesn't try to impress anyone She doesn't act all tough like all the other girls that I know She don't treat me like a simpleton She's not ashamed to be the only other virgin I know When my hamburger's cold, I get up ready to go, She's only fifteen years old, and I'm in love with her soul
(Steve Page Rap Solo) She's got a gold tooth, you know she's hardcore She'll show you a good time, then she'll show you the door...BOY!
CHORUS
There she stands behind the register She's taking orders from the Saddle River Little League If they knew how much I wanted her Their home-room teachers would have to send them home for a week As I head through the door, the movement catches her eye, My heart begins to soar, she smiles, she waves good-bye, good-bye Good-bye, good byeeeeeeeeeeeeee
CHORUS
Uno, dos, tres, quatro Big Mac, Filet o Fish, Quarter Pounder, French Fries Icey Coke, Thick Shakes, Sundaes and Apple Pies Sing that song of taste You can only find at one place: McDonalds

just thought i'd drop a line to make a minor correction. in "McDonalds Girl", (b/barenaked_ladies/mcdonalds_girl), the progression is D-G-A, not D-A-G. i have a live performance of this tune, and it's definitely incorrect. keep up the great work. it's the best site online by far!!!
