| Cool song - I think the lyrics are just filler for a really good song. In other words, the song and tune sound like they were written first, then he just selected the McDonald's story to fill in the tune because he liked the story. But that's good anyway, there need to be more songs that actually tell a story and less of them that try to make a statement or convey some desparate emotion. | |

| Dictionary says that dog-eat-dog means "characterized by ruthless or savage competition." Ray Kroc was a dog-eat-dog businessman. Usually the prase is used in the sentence "it's a dog-eat-dog world." | |

| "dog eat dog, rat eat rat" is a quote from Kroc taken from his autobiography ("Grinding It Out"), which Knopfler seems to have read, as he takes a significant portion of the lyrics from there. The "put a hose in their mouth" is another Kroc quote, among several others. | |

| Basically about how Ray Kroc buying the McDonald's franchise from the McDonald brothers and expanding it. Although, you've gotta be stubborn like Kroc to succeed. Great song. | |
