The Lyrics

Carbo hater,
I need some help get my butt small,
So, as I stumble through my cook book, I'm so dissuaded.
Soon come the holidays,
Can't repress those carbs away,
A guy be sad, he don't do well, his carbs negated.

Just yesterday I lay'way some clothes,
I've got to get un-fat.
Take off some back bumper, I wouldn't mind it,
Got ass to haul, so no carbs on I dine, even though,
This diet really blow.
I cook a steak out, hell
My side dish is herbs, I can't convince myself,
That one po-ta-to peel,
Should mean such a great big deal.

Carbo hater,
Does a carb have mass at all?
A salad cucumber with beans of navy;
Does this help my size?
Don't know I'm crappin' all the time,
I'm missin' food I love, want my rice and gravy.

Isn't what they say all diets blow?
Let's forfeit no fat,
Don't give me no tuber, I must decline it,
But fat eat all, go ahead it is fine, sense makes no.
Atkins tells you so.
Can't learn to take their sell.
Any dish my word, I can't convince myself,
Fat has any appeal.
That's not how I take my meals.

Carbo hater,
I'm forgetin' 'bout this all.
No carb fare's not really wantin' to cop to.
Thank you for the dine,
It all go to my behind,
I just changed my mind.

Just yesterday I lay'way some clothes,
I've got to get un-fat.
Take off some back bumper, I wouldn't mind it,
Got ass to haul, so no carbs on I dine, even though,
This diet really blow.
I cook a steak out, hell
My side dish is herbs, I can't convince myself,
That one po-ta-to peel,
Should mean such a great big deal.

(FOOD) Jenny Craig measures the effect carbos has on stretching your skin by measuring the hide rates. (That joke took three minutes to work out and is still crap!) Loved the parody, a fine chortling to be had. Put down that burger, it's 555 carbs!
