Yesterday the doctor said
If I don't want to end up dead
I must lose weight
So no more eating foods with fat
No more sugar, none of that
Carbohydrate

So I said goodbye to donuts, yeah
Goodbye to sweets... and croissants
Goodbye to all Mars bars
'Cause edible treats, will end in my end

I've eaten things with cal'rie counts
Higher than a hundred-ounce
T-bone steak
Smothered in a pepper cream
That's oh, so rich that it's obscene
And no mistake

But now it's goodbye to donuts, yeah
Goodbye to steak, and French fries
Goodbye to all the past[a]
I guess no more meat to eat in the end

When they say "Put down the knife", I know I
Don't think that it's life, or living
Know what I've gotta do
No, what I've got to do:
For I only live but once
So all my friends: pass the donuts
And have one all of you
Have one, even two

Come on now...

[Solo while everyone's pigging out on donuts]

I said, please pass the donuts, yeah
Pass me the jam.. and sugar
Goodbye to diets past
I'll eat that red meat, it's sweet and my friend

Now the bacon's cookin' fine
And I'm eating all that's mine again
I ain't gonna trim the rind
Or leave any fat behind again

I said.. good buy on donuts, yeah
A good by on fries - they're tasty
Goodbye, and when I'm dead
At least I'll have lived,
Have *lived* till the end
