Yoyo Weight
Eating celery just won't do
every day on the scale makes me mighty blue
Lose one pound gain back two
using a laxative is just too crude
One sunny day I'll be thin again
my metabolism will burn within
I'll be able to eat any sweets I wish
pour on the gravy and lick clean the dish
Born to be fat, wearing triple X
buying size 32 dreaming one day they'll fit
Don't eat that, drink zero calorie
flavorless rice cakes are my new reality
One sunny day I'll be thin again
my metabolism will burn within
I'll be able to eat any sweets I wish
pour on the gravy and lick clean the dish
Yoyo weight is my doomed fate
for with every diet my will escapes
Lose a few pounds then cheat and celebrate
and that mean scale shows I've gained back the weight
One sunny day...
