The Lyrics

An ode to the reluctant dieter.
Out at the deli
Looking at the sausage
I think my gut might break this time
I am a glutton
When I'm on vacation
They're putting lights on my behind
And I wonder if I am ever going to cure it
Living under the weight and all those greasy stains

I can't eat another hero
I don't want to gain five more pounds
All I want is sight beyond my blubber mounds

Looking for veggies I can go chew on
There's got to be something better ahead
Pies and cheese pizza, those days are ending
Face full of chocolate, but I'll be dead
And I wonder if I am ever going to cure it
Living right by the fridge with all those stomach pains

I can't eat another hero
I don't want to gain one more size
All I want is sight beyond my thunder thighs

What we down with our knives
Or just only a fork
Will my story end with a roll?
Mustard and pork?
Give me all that stuffing

I can't eat another hero
I don't want to gain five more pounds
All I want is sight beyond my blubber mounds

Like the "lights on my behind" line, it reminds me of a Stones song, "when the train left the station, there were two lights on behind".....

I'm not a porker. I just play one on the internet.

Hey, Rick--I loved the "thunder thighs" line--very sly reference to the Mad Max movie. Very well done!...d;:^)
