"Funkentelechy" is a song by the funk band Parliament. It is the fourth track on the group's 1977 album ''Funkentelechy Vs. the Placebo Syndrome'' and was released as a two-part single in 1978. Part 1 peaked at number 27 on the U.S. R&B Singles chart. The song's title is a play on the philosophical concept of entelechy. ==Trivia== * The phrase "Urge Overkill" from George Clinton's radio announcer-style patter on the song later became the name of an alternative rock band. * One of Clinton's quips during the song, "Like a woodpecker with a headache," resembles the mood indication on a piano piece by the eccentric composer Erik Satie: "Like a nightingale with a toothache." *This song was sampled by Ice Cube for his song "Doing Dumb Shit" on his album ''Death Certificate''. * The repeated phrase "You deserve a break today - Have it your way" is a reference to McDonald's "You Deserve a Break Today" and Burger King's "Have it Your Way" ad campaigns of the time. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Funkentelechy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
