I'm holding a jump rope,
Barely getting off the ground
I'm trying very hard but I just can't lose the pounds
You say I need a diet
Then take me to the Chinatown buffet,
You tell me that you're hungry
Didn't think I'd sit you down, and say...

It's too late to exercise, it's too late
I said it's too late to exercise, it's too late

I tried to do a dance, but I fall
Then get teased by you
And I'm running out of breath from the heat
Which is so brand new
You dropped a dumbell on my toe
Now it's turning blue, and you say...
"It wasn't me" but, your laugh makes me think it was you
Now I'm afraid...

It's too late to exercise, it's too late
I said it's too late to exercise, it's too late

Bridge (guitar/piano)

It's too late to exercise, it's too late
I said it's too hard to energize, it's too late
I was trying to change my size, yeah
I said it's too late to exercise, yeah-
I'm holding a jump rope, barely getting off the ground...
