It's the chicken wings that give you away
The last at the buffet
Your big ass in the way
It's the chicken wings you eat every day
Please don't ask me how much I now weigh
It's the chicken wings
The chicken wings that give you away

Sometimes
Can't fight my hunger's insistence
I see my pants from a distance
I can't get back inside

Sometimes
I eat at 4 in the morning
When all my family is snoring
A grilled steak lightly seared


Waistlines
The pants are not fitting
They're not fitting
The pants have ripped
Waistlines
 
The Takeout tho



Takeout - it's clear. We will not eat lunch here.
Cream cheese - a schmear. Now let's all go to the cashieeeeeeeeeer.

When the lunch takes out
When the lunch takes out

When the lunch takes out
Hot dogs with sauerkraut
A bag of chips and an iced tea
When the lunch takes out
Get some brussel sprouts
And some oatmeal cookies from Nestle

When the lunch takes out (yum yum yum yum)
When the lunch takes out
 
Shouldn't be here cause I should be fed
I can see the lights in front of me
Need a snack so I can go back to bed
I can see the lights in front of me
Oh dinner if you're still by friend
What the hell, what the hell you done for me?
Maybe I'll have a slice of this bread?
I can see the lights in front of me

Hey... I've been waiting to get corn a long time

Heyyyy...
Maybe some lo mein
Heyyyy...
My belly's growing
If I can just get a cupcake
Then you know I'll eat it
The lights of the fridge
The lights of the fridge

...

Feed yourself, engorge yourself
On cookies from the Keebler elf
From the Keebler ellllllf

15?? (There Is A Line)

And if the customers of the buffet
Are keeping you waiting
And your tray is begging dishes from the menu
Guard your appetite from overinflation
And know that fatness gathers around the waist

If there is a line
Fifteen people deep
If there is a wait
For freshly-carved beef
If there's also pork
Now don't even doubt
If you try it all
Just let the belt out

With the whipped cream and pie
And butter sea 'round some lobster tail
And French dip that stole your diet away
Prevails

When you're All You Can Eating
And all you've got is gluttony
And all you know is feeding

If there is a line
Fifteen people deep
If there is a wait
For freshly-carved beef
If there's also pork
Now don't even doubt
If you try it all
Just let the belt out

'cause this is a trough
A trough for someone
Someone like me

I know the rest are done
But I don't have to be
I've got to digest some of the food in me before I repeat
Am I hungry for one more taste
Do you know the stomach has its own pace
Fatness gathers around the waist
Pile on
Pile on

If there is a line
Fifteen people deep
If there is a wait
For freshly-carved beef
If there's also pork
Now don't even doubt
If you try it all
Just let the belt out

'cause this is a trough
A trough for someone
Someone like me
Someone like me
Someone like me

Ba ba barbecue
Smells like barbecue
Ba ba barbecue
Smells like barbecue

Ba ba barbecue
Smells like barbecue
Ba ba barbecue
Smells like barbecue

Salt and pepper
Then we rub it up and down the meat
The fat that shuts your heart down
A side of cole slaw, corn bread, even beans
With a beer
From the cooler
Watching you cry that there’s no gravy
 
Sorry to interrupt the tasty lyrics, but I'm wondering if no one has noticed the clear connection between Best Thing and
Acrobat
?

What happened your face of melting in snow?
 
Key limes, bread that's unleavened
You're shopping for a snack significant
Artichokes or Jalapenos
Hey now, make blancmange
Dressings such as relish
Your brie is mould filled but it's edible
You say after burgers, you want fries
Then in your dessert, you taste allspice
Oh, is that Worcestershire

First I thought you were just commenting on how they both mention 'face', but then I checked the actual liner notes and realized what you were saying. I never noticed that. But it's not 'in' snow, btw
 
I still can't believe Acrobat is actually being played. And on a nightly basis.
 
BLT

Eat
Eat tonight
And may your meat
Be tenderized

If the mayonnaise
Tasted strange
Then put some ranch
Some ranch on thee

And it's REALLY GOOD, too!
As long as it stays in the set until Boston. I was a touch bummed ASOH got dropped before getting here last summer, but I saw it twice in 1985, so not crushed, if they dropped Acrobat, I'd be very angry. I'm avoiding listening to it/watching it on YouTube until I see it live, very much looking forward to it

Same here. I'm seeing them on June 9, and last tour I ended up being on the first "night 2" shows in which they skipped ASOH. Hopefully that will not happen this time. But it's good sign that it has not rotated out even in San Jose night 2. I'm cautiously optimistic.
 
It's not a cake
This pastry is swirled round and round
To stuff my face
I close my eyes and start to pound

Start to pound, start to pound
Start to pound, all the brown
Start to pound, start to pound
All the brown

It's not a cake
This pastry is swirled round and round
It adds some weight
For every piece I swallow down

Stuff it in my fucking hole
Stuff it in my fucking hole
Stuff my fucking hole
Came here looking for a cinnamon roll
