The Lyrics
Just the Weight You Are
Don't go crazy
Tryin' to feed me
Just eating more won't fill the void, m-m-m
Anorexia
And bulimia
Are two diseases I avoid
You're always saying
You feel bloated
After you've lunched on Power Bars, m-m-m
I'll take the fat times
I'll take the lean times
I'll take you just the weight you are
Don't go for Botox
Or Yogilates
I hate to see you work so hard, m-m-m
Find a balance,
Intake and output
Of protein, calories and carbs
Don't go spendin'
All your paychecks
On liposuction or fat farms, m-m-m
I prefer heavy
Conversation
I want you just the weight you are
Just throw that bathroom scale into
The sea
And our love will be renewed
Ah, what will it take for you to believe
In me
The way that you believe in food
I said I love you,
Fat or slender
My obsessive superstar, m-m-m
What's this concoction in the blender?
I love you just the weight you are........
Don't go crazy
Tryin' to feed me
Just eating more won't fill the void, m-m-m
Anorexia
And bulimia
Are two diseases I avoid
You're always saying
You feel bloated
After you've lunched on Power Bars, m-m-m
I'll take the fat times
I'll take the lean times
I'll take you just the weight you are
Don't go for Botox
Or Yogilates
I hate to see you work so hard, m-m-m
Find a balance,
Intake and output
Of protein, calories and carbs
Don't go spendin'
All your paychecks
On liposuction or fat farms, m-m-m
I prefer heavy
Conversation
I want you just the weight you are
Just throw that bathroom scale into
The sea
And our love will be renewed
Ah, what will it take for you to believe
In me
The way that you believe in food
I said I love you,
Fat or slender
My obsessive superstar, m-m-m
What's this concoction in the blender?
I love you just the weight you are........
