Old Mac (song)
"Old Mac" is the first non-album single by the Australian alternative rock band Tlot Tlot. It was released on 8 December 1992.
== Composition ==
Musically, the song can be considered either hard rock or alternative rock. It uses a xylophone intro followed by heavy guitar riffs which play in the choruses. The riffs' chord progression is a constant D#-F, using two guitars for a thicker sound. The verses have the same drum and bass backing as the chorus, but instead of guitars, a keyboard is used. A different guitar phrase, the notes C-F-F#-A#-F-C-F#-A#-C-A#-C-A#, is used between the verses. The breakdown has stomping on the bass pedal followed by the xylophone intro followed by the between-verses bit, but without the guitars. The chorus then begins again. There is a minor pause before the outro (which is just the chorus repeated four to five times) begins. The end of the song consists of a final strum of the guitar followed by Paulzen bending one of the strings as the song fades out.
Lyrically, the song is about McDonalds and is sung from the point of view of Ronald McDonald (who is only referred to as a "big yellow clown" in the first verse and is not explicitly named until the end).
When Tlot Tlot played the song live, the between-verses bit was played in the intro in place of the heavy guitars, which were placed behind the verses instead of bare keyboards. The chorus was also sung by Paulzen instead of Dixon. In the studio version, Dixon sang "Will anybody be there?", but Paulzen replaced it with "Will Elvis Presley be there?" in the first chorus and "Will Buddy Holly be there?" in the second. With the "No, I don't think so" backing vocal in the chorus, Paulzen sang it in the studio version, but Bolwell would sing it when playing live.
