Comedian's Anthem to Chick-Fil-a Is Clucking up a Storm

Tim Hawkins is an American Christian comedian and songwriter. He is best known for his song parodies and hilarious stand-up material based on marriage, parenting, and homeschooling.

Tim got his start on the internet with videos gaining more than 200 million views. In one of his most famous song parodies, Tim sings about his love for the fast-food restaurant ‘Chic-fil-A.’

Tim steps up to the microphone and plays his acoustic guitar. He sets the melody to the famous song ‘Yesterday’ by ‘The Beatles.’ Tim sings the first line, “Chic-fil-A. I could eat that seven times a day.”

The crowd immediately laughs, and Tim continues singing, “Where the people laugh, and children play. Oh, I’m in love with Chic-fil-A.” Tim maintains an emotional look on his face to add a dramatic effect to the song, but the crowd can’t take him seriously.

Tim sings a line about how he wants to go, but it’s Sunday, the day Chic-fil-A is notoriously closed. He starts to fake cry and whine as he strums his guitar, and the crowd loses it.

Then, he finishes the song with a whimpering and angered voice, “Chic-fil-A. What a dirty, rotten trick to play! Now I have to settle for Subway.” He hums the final line like ‘The Beatles’ did in their original song ‘Yesterday.’ The crowd laughs and cheers for him.

Chick-fil-A operates over 2,890 restaurants across 49 states, and due to their religious beliefs, they are closed on Sundays. Tim Hawkins’ love of chicken led him to create this hysterical parody song.
