Kanye West's latest masterpiece: "The McDonald's Man."

Frank Ocean coincided the surprise release of his new albumBlonde, by setting up a few pop-up shops around the US as well as one in his current residence of London in order to give away a limited number of copies of a magazine called "Boys Don't Cry," which was the presumed title of Blonde. Like the album, the magazine looks to be a rare piece of art. People are now reselling it $1,000, reports Complex. The magazine includes some eye-catching photography and a number of fascinating written passages from Ocean, including one called "Boyfriend." Another highlight: A poem written by Kanye West, entitled "The McDonald's Man." Entirely written about McDonald's, Kanye lashes out at the evil french fries and how they make the rest of the menu jealous, save for "one special guy." Do yourself a favor and read the below transcription. 

McDonalds Man

McDonalds Man

The french fries had a plan

The french fries had a plan

The salad bar and the ketchup made a band

Cus the french fries had a plan

The french fries had a plan

McDonalds Man

McDonalds

I know them french fries have a plan

I know them french fries have a plan

The cheeseburger and the shakes formed a band

To overthrow the french fries plan

I always knew them french fries was evil man

Smelling all good and shit

I don't trust no food that smells that good man

I don't trust it

I just can't

McDonalds Man

McDonalds Man

McDonalds, damn

Them french fries look good tho

I knew the Diet Coke was jealous of the fries

I knew the McNuggets was jealous of the fries

Even the McRib was jealous of the fries

I could see it through his artificial meat eyes

And he only be there some of the time

Everybody was jealous of them french fries

Except for that one special guy

That smooth apple pie

Kanye wrote the poem in Calabasas. Nabil seems to be responsible for its layout and design in "Boys Don't Cry." 

I'm unsure what I just read. But I know life will never be the same.
