[Intro] [brass stabs, slap bass, wah-guitar riff] Hey! Yeah! [Verse 1] [bass and drums only, guitar scratches] Started sideways, watch the drinks stay Level in the cups so smooth I might charge a fee Just for you to look at me, I got this swagger in my walk Victory lap around the block [brass enters] About a plane to hang my coat Left the critics choking on the smoke Ain't nobody doing it like this Better write it on the list I come in with a bang and the whole room sang [Chorus] [full band, driving brass section] Give it up for the king of the kitchen Got everybody in the place steady twitching Give it up for the king of the kitchen I cook up the sounds that you all been missing Missing! (Oh!) [Verse 2] [syncopated guitar riff, active bassline] Give them on a rampage Lock the cage before I get too wild Head held high when I step through town I never let a heavy spirit drag me down Big smiles on every face, trying to keep up with my pace Started from a backyard gig Now the checking account is getting really big Ain't nobody doing it like this Better write it on the list I come in with a bang and the whole room sang [Chorus] Give it up for the king of the kitchen Got everybody in the place steady twitching Give it up for the king of the kitchen I cook up the sounds that you all been missing Missing! (Oh!) [Bridge] [drums drop to half-time, bass slides] Shake it once for the money Shake it twice for the honey (Whoa!) Three times for the sugar Everybody let it go! Let it go! Let it go! [brass crescendo] Let it go! [Guitar Solo] [distorted wah-wah guitar solo, energetic brass accents] [Outro] [Chorus melody repeated by brass] Give it up for the king of the kitchen Got everybody in the place steady twitching Give it up for the king of the kitchen I cook up the sounds that you all been missing Missing! (Oh!) [final brass hit]
