I swore off carbs and sugar last month
Just to try and lose more of this flab
Sitting in a car eating a candy bar
Could have put me right on the slab
I didn't go to Dairy Queen today
I was hungry, but ate no fries or bread
I was in the mood for some fattening fast food
But I ate a salad instead

Chorus:
It's that changes in my glucose, changes my prescribed dose
Feels like I fell off a dock
Sick of finger pricking It's a time bomb ticking
If I don't eat right I'll have insulin shock

Passing a Cinnabon in some airport mall
Aroma alone gives me the hives
Visions of junk food that looks and tastes so good
Makes me think I have nine lives
When my doctor said no Krispy Kreme
I could never adjust to the change
Not eating doughnuts. It make me act so nuts
No sugar in me seems so strange

It's that changes in my glucose, changes my prescribed dose
Feels like I fell off a dock
Sick of finger pricking. It's a time bomb ticking
If I don't eat right I'll have insulin shock

I think about Pepsi instead of insulin
I wish I could jump off a plane
So many nights I dream of refined sugar
The Atkins Diet is so inane
My pancreas can't process sugar
So I can't eat junk anymore
There's too much temptation watching television
And its impossible to ignore

It's that changes in my glucose, changes my prescribed dose
Feels like I fell off a dock
Sick of finger pricking. It's a time bomb ticking
If I don't eat right I'll have insulin shock
If I don't eat right I'll have insulin shock
If I don't eat right I'll have insulin shock
