about

Just my sense of humour exploring a fictional life....

lyrics

My Mama always told me if I learned a trade
I'd be set and I would really have it made
I never talked back to Mama that's what I'd do
Get me a job and some brand new walkin' shoes
Well i walked them shoes from pillar to post
Tryin' to find me a job don't know what hurt most
My pride or my aching body too close to call
When a friend of mine said what ya think you're doin' boy?

They say the tallest blade of grass gets cut down first
If you climb too high you're gonna come off worse
It's tough at the top but it's harder at the bottom
In a hundred years time all of this will be forgotten
You can be a high flier with all that entails
You get the car and money, Supermodels 'on the rails'
It's not all it's cracked up to be,
You're missing out on the simple pleasures
And you cannot ever change the weather, no.

I'm a man for all seasons yeah
I don't pick or choose
You got one life to live or lose
And fat girls need loving too

Well i took that good advice and I took it to heart
I took control of my life and I partied hard
I went from pillar to post, from post back to pillar
I loved a lot of ladies I confess it's a killer
I love the long ones, the short ones, the ones in-between
I love the thin ones, the wide ones, you know what I mean
Over the years I put on a few pounds
It's a hazard of the job when you're doing the rounds
Then one day a pretty Moma said to me

I'm a girl for all seasons yeah
I don't pick or choose
You got one life to live or lose
And fat boys need loving too

But i'm not fat...I've just got thick bones...and my glandular problem...
Oh all right...I'M FAT....Come here, baby!
