Mall Walkers Club
We belong to a local Mall Walkers Club
We meet every morning bout eight
A determined bunch of gnarly old farts
Who are trying real hard to lose weight
We're all different sizes and funny shapes
None that you'd call slim and trim
A common purpose, we all have in mind
We consider this a walk at the gym
You see us guys are all on fixed incomes
Need to count every penny and such
The gym membership is really outrageous
So the mall is where it don't cost too much
For the price of a coffee and bagel with cheese
Which we tend to gobble up real fast
At the same time we catch up on the latest gossip
They caught Bert with his pants at half-mast
So next week, I'm on Good Morning America
Showing off my trimmed down physique
So watch for me, boys, I'll be waving at you
And all my other fine mall walking geeks!
