The Lyrics

I danced ballet for ten years and decided to quit. I felt I wasn't progressing and believed I couldn't pick up on choreography as fast as I should. I was becoming very discouraged, and school was only becoming much more difficult. After quitting, I gained a lot of weight due to an eating disorder. During this time, after ruining any chances I had with my crush, "Abe," Abe transferred any potential love interest he had for me to the slender "Tina." Tina had just learned ballet, and I could tell she was going to be a much better dancer than me in no time. Abe gave her flowers at the dance show we were both in, to my disappointment.
Here's the thing, I started out small
I was slim 'cause I had danced since I crawled
Yeah, yeah
Since I quit ballet

Dedicated, I took the time
In first grade I was the class Einstein
Yeah, yeah
Since I quit ballet

And all you'd ever see me do
Is study, study, dance alone
That's all you'd ever see me do

Since I quit ballet
My grades fell for the first time
I'm eating my soul
Yeah, yeah
Look away, 'cause I gained forty pounds
Since I quit ballet

What can I say?
I failed this time
And now you can't see the bones in my spine
Yeah, yeah
Since I quit ballet

Why did you ever come that day?
Her hot body sure beat mine
Red roses you gave to her

Since I quit ballet
My grades fell for the first time
I'm eating my soul
Yeah, yeah
Look away, 'cause I gained
I gained forty pounds
Since I quit ballet

I had my chance
I ate it
There's the bulge
There's the blood
Hide the scale
I just can't take it,
Again and again and again and again!

Since I quit ballet (since I quit ballet)
My grades fell for the first time
I'm eating my soul
Yeah, yeah
Look away (look away)
'Cause I gained
I gained forty pounds

My grades fell for the first time
I'm eating my soul
Yeah, yeah
Look away (look away)
'Cause I gained
I gained
Can't believe, can't believe
That I gained
I gained forty pounds

Since I quit ballet
Since I quit ballet
Since I quit ballet

This is an okay song parody, but next time watch what decade you put my favorite singer in, or else the decade police should lock u up for life.
