Many people worry about their weight
In case it stops them from getting a date.

Sitting in front of the television
stuffing their faces with potato chips.

Almost like they’re getting double vision
to see those chips go to their hips.

They don’t understand why it’s happening.
They don’t eat the McDonald’s fatty foods.

They hate this relentless fattening.
That keeps them from feeling like the cool dudes.

These extra pounds keep weighing them down.
They've got to lose them so they can feel free now.

They’ve tried this before but been kicked to the floor.
This time they really mean it and will loose them straight out the door.
