There really ain’t no other way I like to grill it
When I get some frozen patties in my skillet
I’m down to eat a salad or scarf up grease
But there’s just one way to serve it that’s gonna please
I don’t care if it’s in slices or an easy squeeze
Just do it- but do it with cheese!
Now you might say your lactose intolerant
But I say just suck it up or you can go get bent
Cause if your tummy hurts then I say “oh please!”
Go wash it down with Tums or some anti freeze
Theres just one way to serve it that’s gonna please
Just do it – but do it with cheese!
When they see me comin’ they don’t need to guess
If I want some cheese with that cause the answer is yes
I need the gooey stuff and that’s for sure
And I don’t care if it’s costing me 50 cents more
Cheese is the stuff of life and you can’t refute
If you think you’re gaining weight then stop eating fruit
Cause life is too short to sweat the calories
So you best start clogging up all those arteries
Live fast and die of cardiovascular disease
Just do it – but do it with cheese!
Hello friends! I’m sure you were all waiting with bated breath for this last installment of our Three Songs In Three Days Campaign. Fun factoid!! Due to some technical issues this song almost was not released today!!! Lucky for you, we had a last minute edit that saved the day. I know, imagine you, all bummed out for the weekend because you were waiting for this song and couldn’t be sure if you would ever hear it!!
Well, here it is. This one was published before as a poem but now has music added, so PLEASE LISTEN!! Come on people, I can tell how many of you are listening and it’s a lot more than those who are stopping by to like or comment…although the fact that you are enjoying the lyrics is appreciated as well….but we work hard on this stuff!! This is another track with my daughter on vocals and you know she’s a newbie at this so all feedback is appreciated, especially the good kind!! Okay, without further ado, The CheeseBergens’ lifelong motto…Do It With Cheese!
I love this one, but I admit to never listening. It’s a sure fire way to get busted in my cubicle.
Ha, ha! Thanks for your honesty Craig! Many’s the time that I get a post with audio and / or video and I can’t watch/listen because the boss is around or someone’s asleep in the same room as me.
Nothing warms my cold Wisconsin heart like an Ode to Cheese
I know what you’re sayin!
Phew, glad you could make it happen! What a great song while you are cooking dinner. It makes you even more hungry!!!
Ha, ha! Yes, I suppose it is good for that. I appreciate your support!
Always, Marissa! It is amazing to see your family band progressing 👍
I ALWAYS listen (although sometimes with earbuds 😉 ) … but today I have the bluetooth speaker on for volume! This song is my favourite of the three!! It could easily be the Sisco Family Theme Song … I come from a proud line of cheese enthusiasts. On a conservative guess, I believe there are at least 6 different types of cheese in my fridge right now 🙂
Yes please. I’ll take cheese.
Retro metal. Love it.
My heart and soul! Thanks for your support!
Thank you for keeping it alive.
I never trust a person who refuses cheese. Cheese, crackers and rock n’ roll! Well done!
Okay, now you are officially a CheeseBergen!
Cheese is definitely my favorite food group.
Right?
Double grill cheese level, Marissa! Always cool when your daughter takes to the mic..
Thanks Syl! I will let her know!
You’re welcome! Cool!!
You could turn commercial with this…….
Thanks Colleen…but, you know…wouldn’t want to lose our street cred!
Well, hang on to that street cred…until…. you know EVERY one at some point is cool enough to go commercial and everyone says “it’s about time they did that”. 😉
I don’t know…well consider…
Okay, I listened. And holy cheese fries, I was missing some great stuff!
This was really good guys. I’ve adopted it as my anthem to cheese, glorious cheese! (Just picture me holding up a slice of cheese as if it were a lighter. And then proceeding to finish said slice before the song was over).
Encore! With extra cheese, of course. 🙂
Thanks for listening! We should do a game like when you take shots but only with cheese slices…maybe every time the word cheese is sung!
That’s pretty cheesy. 🙂
Cheese really is the best food of all time. 🙂
I tend to agree…but then again, song says it all, right?
I always do it with cheese! I like that song, it has some bite in it 😀 Your two kiddos are really gonna be setting the world on fire when they grow up; they are super talented already. I wish all kids had a chance to learn in some discipline of the arts. Way to go!!
Thanks Lana! That’s really nice of you to say. Yes, wish there were more arts in the schools. Can you believe my daughter’s school has no music program?
Wow, but actually I can. They always cut the arts first in schools. They don’t understand how music helps kid’s cognitive development, and also the benefits of art and literature. Very sad indeed. At least you have that covered with your kiddos, but unfortunately not all have talented parents that spend time developing those attributes.
yes, for sure, and thank you for saying that.
So random…actually read this whilst eating cheese. Amazing!!!
That is quite a coincidence…or is it? I mean, it is the stuff of life, after all.
My grandson, Micah, is going to listen and give his opinion. So, here we go!
“It was really funny! It was a good song and I liked the guitar!” (Age 8)
The long instrumental solos (right before the section about gaining weight and stop eating fruit) were AWESOME and AMAZING!! I was impressed that your daughter doesn’t stumble over those multiple syllable words, “cardiovascular disease.” 🙂 Bravo to the Cheesebergens!
I love that you let Micah listen to it and gave us his feedback…and mostly glad he liked it. Full disclosure, Anjelica did stumble over some of the words but that’s what multiple takes are for!
She was amazing, your son has a cool vibe and sound in his voice. I love your voice and really could see how far you may have gone. . . It is more about being in the right place at the right time. Knowing all the famous people you rubbed elbows with (maybe other parts, too?! ha ha ) you left an indelible impression on them, too. xo
Love love LOVE this. But that’s probably not a surprise 🙂
Ha, ha, yes Amanda, I was hoping you would adopt it as your them song.
Love this
Thanks Nimi!
Cheese and artichokes. There’s a theme for ya!! Haha! LOVED this the first time I heard it and of course loved it the second time too!!! YAY for you and the family, Marissa!! ❤
Cheese and artichokes…now there’s an interesting combination…the wheels are spinning! Thank you for your kind words Amy!
I feel lucky to be here. I’m a cheesehead/former rock singer who started in wisconsin. Your sound rocks!
Thanks so much Lara! You are perfect!
I couldn’t hear it. I’ll have to try online later. The songs cracks me up because long, long ago I inspired a song for my friends college band called Anything with Cheese On It Is Good. Of course the CheezeBergens doing a song about cheese was inevitable and perfect!
Ah, brilliant minds..huh! I would love to hear your take on it. Maybe just an endless rhyming list of things that are better with cheese…even if it isn’t!
That would make a great song too!
Another favorite song of mines.
These lyrics mad me laugh hard.
Now you might say your lactose intolerant
But I say just suck it up or you can go get bent
Cause if your tummy hurts then I say “oh please!”
Go wash it down with Tums or some anti freeze
Theres just one way to serve it that’s gonna please
You guys rock. I want you to post more music here. 🙂
Thanks! We don’t get to record as often as we’d like but we do have one more track in the works. Hoping to post it soon!
yay!!! I can’t wait to hear it. 🙂 I’m really excited. 🙂
Made me want some of that yummy Cool rockin with the cheese. LOL. Love the track.
Really? Despite all the health disadvantages? Ha. ha! Thanks Elizabeth!
I said I wanted it, not that I can have it. LOL.
Just got a chance to listen–your daughter has a promising heavy metal voice, great work on the instruments too. Cheese is the best… when I first got married, a friend gave me this cooking tip: men will eat anything if you sprinkle a little cheese on top. 28 years later, it’s still true. 🙂
THanks for listening! That’s a great tip! Would have been useful if I found out 15 years ago!
You could approach Kraft to play this song in one of their commercials! So creative 🙂
Thank you Christy! Sounds like a money making venture to me!
