AmDo not feed douGghnuts to your obeFse childrenEm  
AmYou will regrGet it when they’rFe in their teensEm  
AmMaccas might shut Gthem up now that tFhey’re sevenEm  
But thFey won’t forgive you, when
EmThey’re getting picked last for PEAm  
Bm7Don’t you see?
AmBoombalata motherfucker
D9Have you noticed that your kids are fatDm?
AmWhat are you going to do about that?D7  
AmWhat are you going to do?
AmSo you telling me that your familyD7  
AmHas a history of obesiD7ty
You got a polycyAmstic ovaryD7  
AmIt’s just the way that God made meD7  
AmIt’s unlikely, D7statistically
To be a physiAmcal thing
But either way D7it don’t explain why you
Are in the cue Amat Burger King
You can blame Amit on biologyD7  
You can blame Amyour physiologyD7  
You can point Amto genealogyD7  
And your sociAmal anthropologyD7  
You can say yoAmu are an ectomorphD7  
That you just Amcan’t get the kilos offD7  
Well you can be what Bm7you wanna be
But stop feeding that boy KFCE7  
He weFighs 40 kilos and he’s only three
He loBm7oks like a clean-shaven PavarottiE7  
FSwitching to Diet Coke is not the way Cback
GBoombalata kiddie-stuffer
Your kidD’s a fat, have you noticed that?
AmAnd you oughta be ashFamedG  
For you only Amhave yourself to bFlame.G  
Your 5 yeFar old princess in her size 14 tutuC  
GOnly eats pizza like that bDecause you doE7  
Will be dead Cof a heart attack
BeforGe your grandchildren are tenC  G  
PerhaCps you’ll consider
A cuGt-back on extra fries thenC  G  
AmBoombalata kiddie-stuffer
D9Have you noticed that your kids are fatDm?
AmWhat are you going to do about that?D7  
AmWhat are you going to do?
AmSo you telling me that your familyD7  
AmHas a history of obesiD7ty
You got a polycyAmstic ovaryD7  
AmIt’s just the way that God made meD7  
AmBut – and in youD7r case
There’s a reasoAmnably big buttD7  
Do you think Amit’s an appropriate treatD7  
The all-you-can-eat at PizAmza Hut?D7  
There’s no excuse Amyou silly gooseD7  
For a chiAmld with a cabooD7se
Like a mooAmse who’s eaten too much mousseD7  
It’s tAmantamount to child abuseD7  
Kick them off the Amfucking couchD7  
UnplAmug the PlaystatiD7on
Send them down to Amthe parkD7  
If they don’t wanna Amgo, make ’emD7  
AmTell them they have to jogD7  
Until their jogAmging shorts fit’emD7  
If they heAmsitate, ask firmlD7y
If they stiAmll resist, hit’em
Is tFhis what you want for your little girl aCnd guy?
These chipGs off the pork chop, for the toffee apples of Dyour eye?
FSix packs of kit cats are not the way Cback
GBoombalata Kiddie-Stuffer
Your kids Dare fat, did ya notice that?
AmAnd you, you ought to be ashameFdG  
AmFor you have only got yourself to blaFmeG  
Your 6 yFear old miniature Jabba the HuCt
Eating halGf melted Mars Bars from the folds of his gutD  
He'll be dead Cof an aneurysm
BeforGe his own children ism tenC  G  
PerhaCps you’ll consider
A cuGt-back on Taco Bell thenC  G  
PerhCaps you’ll consider
A cuGt-back on Krispy Kreme doughnutsC  
And Popcorn in bucket-siGzed boxes
And micCrowave pizza or drive through GMcDonalds
For weeCknightly dinners in front of the GTV
And noteCs to the phys-ed instructor sGaying
Timmy has asthma Cbut he really just gets short of brGeath
Cos he’s 35 kilCos above the ideal weightG  
Of 35 Ckilos for a nine yGear old boyC
