VeggieTales - Cheeseburger Lyrics
Lyrics
(verse 1)
Ehem.. And now it's time for love songs with Mr.Lunt,
The part of the show where Mr.Lunt comes out,
and Sings a love song.
He said to her "I'd like a cheeseburger,
And i might like a milkshke aswell",
And said to him "i cant give you either",
But he said "it's in this burger bell!",
She said "yes it is, but were closed now,
But we open tommorow at ten!",
HE SAID "I AM EXTREMELY HUNGRY!!!!
But i guess i cant wait until then......"
(Chorus)
Coz' your his Cheeseburger,
His yummy Cheeseburger,
He'll wait for you-ooo,
YAH! He'll wait for you-ooo,
Oh, You are his Cheeseburger,
His tasty Cheeseburger,
He'll wait for you-ooo,
Oh, he will wait for you.
(verse 2)
He stayed at the drive-thru till sunrise,
COCKELLDOODLEDOO!!!!
He may have dozed of once or twice,
when he spotted a billboard for 'Danny's',
Bacon and Eggs for half price,
How could he resist such an offer,
He REALLY needed somthing to munch!
Cheeseburger please do not get angry!
He'll eat and be back here for lunch!
(Chorus)
Coz' your his Cheeseburger,
He's priceless Cheeseburger,
Be back for you-ooo,
He'll be back for you-ooo,
Won't be so long Cheeseburger,
Oh lovely Cheeseburger,
Be back for you-ooo,
Oh he'll be back for you!
(verse 3)
Coz' he loves his Cheeseburer with all his heart,
And there aint' nothing gunna tear you two-oo apart,
And if the world went in here and ran out of cheese,
He would get down on his hands and knees,
I tell if someone accidenly dropped some cheese in the dirt,
Then they would wipe it up for you,
Wipe it up for you,
Clean that dirty cheese up just for YOU!!!!!!
You are his Cheese-bur-GER!!

VeggieTales: His Cheeseburger - Silly Song
Meaning & Inspiration
"Cheeseburger," from the 2013 release "And Now It's Time for Silly Songs with Larry (The Complete Collection / 20th Anniversary Edition)," presents a humorous yet surprisingly profound exploration of devotion and commitment, framed through the endearing and slightly absurd perspective of Mr. Lunt. While its surface appeal lies in the character's intense craving for a cheeseburger, the song's underlying message resonates with biblical themes of unwavering love and faithfulness, even in the face of temptation and delay. The narrative unfolds with Mr. Lunt's ardent declaration of desire for a cheeseburger and milkshake, met with the frustrating reality of the establishment being closed. His desperate plea, born from extreme hunger, highlights a relentless pursuit of his object of affection. This mirrors the biblical concept of persistent prayer and seeking God, as seen in Matthew 7:7: "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you."
The chorus, proclaiming "You are his Cheeseburger," powerfully encapsulates the idea of something or someone being cherished above all else, a singular focus of affection. This echoes the first commandment in Exodus 20:3, "You shall have no other gods before me," which, when applied metaphorically to human relationships or our devotion to God, speaks to an exclusive and steadfast love. Mr. Lunt's commitment is tested in the second verse when faced with an alternative offer – a half-price deal on bacon and eggs. His internal struggle and ultimate decision to remain loyal to his cheeseburger, even as he acknowledges a need to "munch" something in the interim, points to the enduring nature of true devotion. This can be compared to the steadfastness required of believers, as encouraged in Galatians 6:9: "Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up."
The third verse elevates the song’s message further, describing a love so profound that "there ain't nothing gonna tear you two apart." The imagery of Mr. Lunt’s willingness to get on his hands and knees, and even to clean up dropped cheese, paints a picture of sacrificial love and a commitment to purity and preservation of the beloved object. This speaks to the kind of love described in 1 Corinthians 13:7: "It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." The entire song, in its whimsical VeggieTales fashion, serves as a delightful reminder that true affection, whether for a simple burger or for something far more significant, is characterized by patience, loyalty, and a willingness to overcome obstacles. It encourages us to reflect on the objects of our devotion and the depth of our commitment, finding inspiration in the idea of unwavering pursuit and cherishing what we hold dear, much like a believer’s pursuit of righteousness and God’s unwavering love for humanity.
