no one likes a fat pop star

i come from a land of kebabs and curries

second helpings

no worries. pile the carbs upon the plate

then one day

it's too late. no breakfast

no luncheon

just carpets i'm munching

a thimble of self-esteem. glazed nothing for afters

an absence of laughter

the saddest that i've ever been. you just can't be portly

not this side of 40

showbiz

a single chin game. scum paparazzi's and weight police nasties

have narrowed the hall of fame. no one likes a fat pop star

pop is a place for the thin. no one likes a fat pop star

we want to hear thin people sing!

when i get faint

i chew through my restraints

it's the best meal that i've had all week. if i could eat my own words

i'd tear through the verbs

but nobody pays me to speak. no one likes a fat pop star

pop is a place for the thin. no one like a fat pop star

we want to hear thin people sing!

now you've upset me

i feel like a snack. a packet of minstrels

a pie and a nap. so what's wrong with that?

no breakfast

no luncheon

just carpets i'm munching

a thimble of self-esteem. glazed nothing for afters

an absence of laughter

the thinnest that i've ever been. thank you
