Alright, stop what you’re doing—unless you’re crafting a sword or mining for diamonds—because “Steve’s Lava Chicken” is officially the hottest track of the year. And we mean that literally. It’s made of lava. And chicken. This song is burning up the charts and your virtual mouth. 🔥🐔
Straight outta the pixelated kitchen of the blockbuster smash, The Minecraft Movie, this song has gone viral faster than a creeper on a caffeine drip. Tens of thousands of fans have already hit up Genius like, “What are the lyrics to this lava-infused banger that’s been living rent-free in my head since Tuesday?”
Spoiler alert: the lyrics are just as ridiculous and amazing as you’d hope.
Penned by the one and only Jack Black (aka chaos in human form) and director Jared Hess (of Napoleon Dynamite fame, so you know it’s gonna be weird and wonderful), and produced by music wizard John Spiker, this track is the culinary fever dream you didn’t know your life was missing.
In the movie, our pixelated hero Steve—yes, that Steve, blocky, brave, and apparently now a chef—decides to go full Gordon Ramsay… but with lava. Actual lava. And chicken. Don’t ask where the USDA was.
🎵 “La-la-la-lava ch-ch-ch-chicken / Steve’s Lava Chicken, yeah, it’s tasty as hell!” 🎵
—A line that will go down in Minecraft history next to “oof” and “why is there a skeleton in my house?!”
Honestly, it’s like if a recipe and a rock anthem had a baby in the Nether.
So if you haven’t heard this steamy, screamy, spicy serenade to poultry, do yourself a favor and listen now. Warning: side effects may include headbanging, excessive clucking, and an uncontrollable urge to dip your KFC in magma.
Now excuse me while I go find a lava bucket and reconsider my life choices. 💀🔥🍗
