Beck Hansen (born Bek David Campbell, July 8, 1970) is an American musician, singer-songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist. Beck's music is known for its pop-junk culture collage of musical styles, ironic lyrics, samples, drum machines, live instrumentation and heady sound effects.
Beck was born in Los Angeles, California, to David Campbell (a musician and son of a Presbyterian minister) and Bibbe Hansen (a former dancer for The Velvet Underground, founding member of the satirical band Black Fag, and visual artist).

AmG Am Come gather round me people, here's a story you never heard
AmGAm Bout me and my friends and some things that occured
AmG Am Thought we'd get some money, we thought that me might go
AmGAm Spent the weekend pleasant, down in mexico
AmGAm I was workin at Mcdonalds, doing the late night run
AmGAm when a car pulled up the drive thru and pointed out a gun
AmGAm said gimme all your money, and three big macs to go
AmGAm I stuffed them all in a sack and i ducked down below
Well the boss was angry when he found out that i didn't call the police I guess i was kinda nervous there was a warrant out on me concerning some jaywalkin tickets i couldn't afford to pay needless to say i got the axe that same day
Well me being outta work just then, i couldn't afford to go home mom said if i lost this job i've have to go out on my own so i went over to dave's house and i got really stoned called up some girls but none of them were home
Steve came over and he brought some alcohol we all got really depressed, just staring at the wall we thought we'd get some money, we thought that we might go spent the weekend pleasant, down in mexico
Steve's dad had a huntin rifle, and we went and picked it up we stopped at a 7-11 to try out our luck we pulled out that huntin rifle, but the counter guy just laughed as he pulled out an uzi, we turned and hauled ass.
We ran so fast, till we came to the Mcdonalds where i used to work we walked up to the drive thru and gave my boss a jerk said give us all you money and 3 big macs to go and suck on this you weasel, we're going to mexico
When we got there we got really wasted, dave got a case of the runs we all got hungover and we were getting low on funds steve and dave called there parents and took the bus back home. me I got a job at Mcdonalds.....down in Mexico
