"The Ordertaker" is a single by Filipino Novelty rock band Parokya ni Edgar, also featuring Kamikazee. The song is a parody of "Chop Suey!" and "Toxicity" by the American rock band System of a Down. The melody follows a simpler version of Chop Suey's progression, the story of a man who cannot order at a restaurant, partly because the restaurant doesn't have a menu, listing all of the different foods that he would like to eat, and mostly because the restaurant doesn't have any food to serve. The name "The Ordertaker" is a parody of World Wrestling Entertainment superstar The Undertaker.

Video

The video starts with vocalist Chito Miranda entering, wearing the same clothes that he wore in the music video for the band's "Picha Pie". Kamikazee and Parokya ni Edgar proceed to spoof several wrestlers (The Ordertaker, parody of The Undertaker and Adonis 3:16, parody of Steve Austin). Chito Miranda parodies The Ultimate Warrior, while Vinci Montaner is missing in action (he's in the "Wanted" print ad).

Trivia

*When the customer gets angry because there was no food, he transformed to The Ordertaker, Incredible Hulk-style.
*Another reference to the Incredible Hulk are the opening words "Don't make me hungry. You don't like me when I'm hungry." which replaces "angry" with "hungry".
*The main plot parodies both WWE and the Monty Python Cheese Shop sketch.
