Lyrics
FAT FARM
Please don't send me to no fat farm
I'll get skinny on my own
I'll take the tempt out of temptation
And leave them calories alone
There'll be no more second helpings
Even if you ask me please
I won't be so roly poly
I'm impossible to squeeze
There'll be no more hot fudge sundies
No more skin tight 38's
I'll do aerobics during lunch time
I'll have hips just like a snake
There'll be a need for a new nickname
Everyone will call me slim
You'll have to squint to see my shadow
As I cut right through the wind
There'll be no more double meat cheeseburgers
No more pizza, no more beer
No more triple scoops of ice cream
My waist line's gonna disappear
Except maybe after a ballgame
At a party or with some friends
Or many midnight when I'm hungry
But I swear that's where it ends.
Please don't send me to no fat farm
I'll get skinny on my own
I'll take the tempt out of temptation
And leave them calories alone
There'll be no more second helpings
Even if you ask me please
I won't be so roly poly
I'm impossible to squeeze
