I'm Sorry, Killers



I was stuck in a cage,
And I was feeling too fat.
Hadta hadta lose weight.
‘Cuz I couldn’t live like that
It started out with a vow.
How did I end up so big?
Started out with a vow, I would change it all now.

Now I'm waking right up,
And I’m hitting the gym.
Where I have a workout,
Some days taking a swim.

Now I’m going to bed,
And my stomach is empty.
But it’s all in my head,
Hadda good dinner, you see.
Success now.
I am weighing less now.
Watch me go.

And I just won’t quit – pride’s filling me.
I’m taking control…
Obesity, turning kids into fatties.
Pants givin’ our thighs a squeeze.
Choking down more cheddar cheese.
Eating less is the price I pay.
Density is going down.
Disappear before our very eyes…
Become Mr/Mrs Diet-Right.

Now I’m out of my cage,
And I've been doing just fine.
Scale is still dropping down,
Because I want it all.
It started out with a vow.
To believe it’d end up like this…
Up out of the abyss, to make a new life exist.
Now I'm feeling okay,
Actually I’m feeling real strong.
And I look pretty good,
When I’m wearing a thong.

Now I’m out for a run,
And my stomach is sick.
And I feel like my lungs
Are busting out of my chest.
I'm my best now
There's no need to rest now
Here I go...

Now I’m off the hook - it's thrilling me.
I’m taking control…
Obesity, turning hope into pity.
Can’t let that happen to me.
A new day now will set us free
It all can change today,Destinies change everyday.
Open up your eager eyes…
Become Mr/Mrs Diet-Right.

Never...
Never...
Never...
Never... give up!

    No man should ever wear a thong.

    Period.
