Somewhere, I once saw a post or an article that Mark got mad because a McDonald's ran a local family owned fish and chips place out business, through price undercutting, etc. The story went that a friend of Mark's told him to read Ray Kroc's autobiography, and the rest, as they say, is history. The song has actual lines from Kroc's book in the lyrics.
