I’m Not Apologizing For This One…



I weighed this afternoon.
The number didn’t start with two.
One thing I've left to do,
Weigh-in on my
Weigh-in to you.

No more games of “What if”
One pound makes all the diff.
One pair of running shoes and
Some bubblegum, too.

Because I had a goal
And I made it.
Even though I didn’t know
Jack Sh*t.
I took all my big plans,
And achived 'em.
I'm so proud not to be so wide.

My body’s in Onederland.
My body is a wonder (understand?)
My body’s in Onederland.

Something 'bout the way
That scale fell down to the 190’s
I love the shape I’ve taken
Standing there in my tighty-whiteys.
I’ve told you how it’s gone and
What I’ve gone through to lose it.
It’s time to let your waist get replaced
With muscle, it’s time to choose it.

If you got a goal,
You can make it.
Take your determination
And wake it.
Take all your bad habits
And break 'em.
This is bound to be worthwhile.

Your body’s in Onederland.
Your body is a wonder (understand?)
My body’s in Onederland.

Damn scale,
You frustrate me.
This loss is mine, all mine, all mine,
Even though weighing in hurts sometimes.

My body’s in Onederland.
My body’s a wonder (give me a hand)
My body’s in Onederland.
My body’s in Onederland.

  1. WOW, congrats! And I LOVE the lyrics. I'm just so insanely jealous that you beat me to it (the lyrics even more so than the move to Onederland!)

  4. Awesome parody...what is great about your blog Jack is the variety of messages that you can get from it. Downright serious stuff served up in a light calorie wrap.

  22. Ok, first off, many congratulations to you.

    Second, "Your Body Is A Wonderland" is one of the grossest songs ever written. It makes me cringe. So I don't know whether to be impressed by your achivement or horrified at the song!

  24. Great lyrics my friend! I had a really horrible---but funny comment involving what I might have to do to join you in onederland. It was in very poor taste---and my internal filter caught it before I typed it. Dang it!

    You can imagine.

    My best.
