You may remember a couple days ago we release the awesome Eminem bacon song parody from our resident bacon song pariodists Kristen & Jen. Well, today we bring you the lyrics so you can sing along as you listen to the MP3. Enjoy!
[Intro]
Two trailer park pigs are ’bout to get fried;
’bout to get fried, ’bout to get fried
Two trailer park pigs are ’bout to get fried;
’bout to get fried, ’bout to get fried
Guess who’s back
Back again
Jen is back
Tell a friend
Guess who’s back, guess who’s back, guess who’s back, guess who’s back
guess who’s back, guess who’s back, guess who’s back..
I’ve created the flavor, cause nobody wants to eat chicken no more
They want pork, not chopped liver (huh?)
Well if you want pork, this is what I’ll give ya
A little bit of smoked mixed with some maple sugar
Some grease that’ll jump start my heart quicker
than the shock I get finding out from you that
the doctor just told you,
you’re coming down with Swine flu
You waited this long, to cook the bacon
now I’m back, I got a stack and I’m salavatin’
I know that you got a job Miss Piggy
but your feet and ears are so tast-y
So the P E T A don’t like bacon today
or let me eat meat, so let me see
They try to shut me down on Food TV
But it feels so healthy, without me
So, come on and flip, the pork sticks to your hips
want that taste on your lips, mix up some with the grits
And get ready, cause this meat’s about to get greasy
I just fried another batch now, get your plates ready!
Now this looks like a job for me
So everybody, just fry me
Cause we need to get a little, greasy
Cause it feels so healthy, without me
I said this looks like a job for me
So everybody, just fry with me
Cause we need to get a little, greasy
Cause it feels so healthy, without me
Pork Medallions, I’m feelin the talent
the fatness of creation is fabulous
I start feelin like I’m needin a snack soon
’til someone comes along in the kitchen and yells FLU!!!!
A visionary, vision of scary
Could start a pandemic, pollutin the airwaves
A rebel, so just let me revel and bask
in the fact that I got everyone eatin my stash
And it’s a disaster, such a catastrophe
for you to see so damn much of this flu crap, it’s just a shame
Cause I’m back, na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Love your piggies, kiss their snouts they’re not the the ones to blame
enter in, into the kitchen like a winner
The center of attention, back for your dinner
I’m just creating, the best thing since bacon dressing
Infesting in your pig’s ears and nesting
{*bzzt* Testing, attention please
Feel the excitment, soon as someone mentions meat
Here’s my pork rinds, my ham and my links
A pork chop and some ears? You didn’t want the feet?
[Chorus]
A-tisket a-tasket, I got a few pounds in my basket
anybody who’s talkin this fat, that’s fat
Miss save the pigs , you can get your ass kicked
worse than those little go greener bastards
Do you know me? You don’t even know my homies
you have no idea what you’re missing out on honey
But that’s ok, you don’t know do you,
It’s over, nobody eat’s your tofu!
Now let’s go, just gimme the signal
I’ll be there with a whole pound hearin’ the sizzle
I been there, coming up with the hot rhymes
ever since Kris turned herself into a bacon rind
But sometimes it just seems
everybody only wants to bash the meat
So this must mean the bacon’s got grease
But it’s just me, I’m just obese
No I’m not the first queen of bacon parodies
I am the best thing since K-winaslski
to do bacon music so selfishly
and used it to get myself wealthy
(Hey!!) There’s a concept that works
Twenty million other meat rappers emerged
But no matter how many pigs in the sea
It’ll be so healthy, without me
-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Every so often we get an email devoid of detail but containing something so fantastic we just have to share. Today was one of those days.
Kristen & Jenny are at it again with their song parodies. This time, however, things are different. Not only is this parody lyrically great, but it’s also well produced and just plain awesome. We don’t have any other details than that it’s a parody of a popular Eminem song.
So with that in mind, follow these simple instructions…
Download the MP3 now.
Load it on your iPod.
Smile.
Repeat.
That’s right folks, you too can now rock out with your bacon out.
Danelectro makes a cool looking little amp/guitar pedal that Instrument Alley sells for only $19.95. In fact, Instrument Alley also says they’ll beat any price so how could you NOT buy one?
We don’t have any experience with this little device, so if anyone out there has one make a short video and send it in. We’d like to know what kind of guitar-shredding quality you can get for 20 bucks.
Rock on my bacon brothers & sisters. Rock on.
This classic was originally released in 2004. Kudos to Todd Winkler and Andrew King for recording this original song and Terri Pike for the nifty animation.

This funky little compilation album came out in 2006 with oh so bacony title of “The Bacon Bits – Mofongo”. The label refers to the record as “a sunny blend of American funk and Caribbean sounds that will turn anyone’s idea of International music upside down.”
The musicians hit you with a wide variety of musical styles. From a little reggae style on the track “Majesty” to a low down & funky rendition of “The Rent Hustle”, this album offers a good mix of music with a title any bacon lover is sure to enjoy.
The CD and MP3 are available at CD Baby.
Even when they’re rocking hard on the road, the boys of Metallica still appreciate the value of a home cooked meal. More specifically, the guys dig bacon.
How do we know this? Well, we got a tip (thanks Dan) that we should check out Metallica’s catering rider over at The Smoking Gun web site. Turns out that even though they have at least “six strict vegetarians on the crew”, the band makes sure that no less than three times during the 3-page catering section of the document the following phrase appears in all capital letters:
“BACON VERY IMPORTANT THAT BACON BE AVAILABLE AT EVERY MEAL AND DURING DAY”
That’s right, the hardest of hard rockers get their metal madness from our favorite meat – bacon. Don’t believe us? Read the catering rider for yourself. Now, if they’d only write a song about bacon like Aerosmith almost did…
What do you get when you cross an Irish drinking song, heavy rockin’ guitars, a bit of political discourse, and the candy of meats? Why, the single greatest bacon song in the history of mankind of course!
The song is Donuts and Bacon, which the artist describes as “a bouncy Pro-Obama agitprop song about voting liberally, drinking liberally, and celebratory hangover food.” We have another word for it — brilliant.
No matter what your political views, if you’re a bacon lover you’ll be smitten with Brooklyn, NY’s “The James Rocket” (AKA James William Roy). James sent us the MP3 with the simple yet poignant instructions:
“Hotlink to the song, download it and post it, and otherwise share it. Tell all your friends about it. Put it on your iPod and repeat it, learning all the words. Sing it in the subway…”
We have and we shall James!

DONUTS AND BACON LYRICS
We were reading and watching and ranting irate
When we saw a shirt advertised at the debate
Such sweet inspiration! A savory plate
Of donuts and bacon, Obama 08
And I saw in that vision before me online
A fine sentiment that we could all get behind
When the victory’s ours let’s go out and get blind
And eat donuts and bacon in the morning!
CHORUS
Donuts and bacon and
Donuts and bacon and
Donuts and bacon in the morning
Donuts and bacon and
Donuts and bacon and
Donuts and bacon in the morning
It’s been a long tunnel but we see the light
Cause we all know that Barry will carry the fight
So let’s get out the vote then drink whiskey all night
And eat donuts and bacon in the morning
CHORUS
All good liberals can fight when our back’s to the wall
Cause we know that we’re right, and the right’s not at all,
All us losers and boozers and heroes can’t fall
If there’s donuts and bacon in the morning
CHORUS
Though we’ve suffered eight years of republican blight
If the worst should occur by deceit tuesday night
We can drown all our sorrows then get up to fight
And eat donuts and bacon tomorrow
But religious folks tell me despair is a sin
And though I’m no believer and I’ve never been
I believe that Obama and Biden will win
Let’s have donuts and bacon every morning
CHORUS 2X and WE OUT.

Hear “Donuts and Bacon” for yourself:
And once you’ve had your fill, buy the T-Shirt that inspired it all.

Ode to Bacon in the SummerTime
(slow, sleazy, dipped in pork fat)
Waking up in the morning
is so very hard to do
just wanna pull the covers back over my head
but the dog is barking
and the cat does meow
and another day has got to be faced
i drag myself to the bathroom
take a good look at my face
ugh, not a pretty site
what’s a gyrl to do?
so we stumble to the kitchen
grind myself a cup
and baby, that’s where it all begins
i want pig
i want dead cooked pig
that’s the only thing that will get me thru
slice the neck
bleed it dry
smoke it
cure it
thick cut fried
gimmie pig
porcine paradise
i want
sausages, bacon, eggs and beans
gimmie soda bread, cheesey bread you know what i mean!
full on ulster fry in my eyes
open wide……
that’s the start of a day
it gets me on my way
wot more can i say (wink wink)
kill me a piggie
and i’ll put it in pie
(insert sultry laughter)
can you smell it?
something in the air
wafting thru my kitchen
burnt flesh
not rare!
crispy greasy crunchy please me
gimmie
bacon
bacon
bacon
bacon
baby please!
i want dead pig
and i want it
now…..
