Kinks - Skin & Bone Lyrics
Fat flabby annie was incredibly bigShe weighed just about sixteen stoneAnd then a fake dietician went and put her on a dietNow she looks like skin and bone.Do the meditation and yogaAnd shes thrown away the good food guideAnd shes given up the alcohol and pizzasAnd the pies and now she looks as if shes ready to die,You cant see her walk by.Dont eat no mashed potatoes,Dont eat no buttered sconesStay away from carbohydratesYoure gonna look like skin and bone.Living on the edge of starvationAnd she says shes got no appetiteAnd her father and her motherAnd her sisters and her brothersCouldnt see her when she walked byShe looked like skin and bone.Dont eat no mashed potatoes,Dont eat no buttered sconesStay away from carbohydratesYoure gonna look like skin and bone.She used to be so cuddly,She used to be so fat,But oh what a sin cos shes oh so thinThat she lost all the friends that she had,She looks like skin and boneIf you look flabbyAnd you feel overweight,And you wanna lose a couple of stone,Take a crash course diet do your daily exercisesAnd youll look like skin and bone.Come on rattle them bones,Put your hands up to the ceiling,Bend your hips and touch your toes,Do your daily exercises,Youre gonna look like skin and bone,Dont eat no mashed potatoes, etc.
