G
Fat Flabby Annie was incredibly big
D
She weighed just about sixteen stone
G C C# D
And then a fake dietician went and put her on a diet
G D
Now she looks like skin and bone.
G
Do the meditation and yoga
D
And she's thrown away the good food guide
G C C#
And she's given up the alcohol and pizzas
D
And the pies and now she looks as if she's ready to die,
G
You can't see her walk by.
G
Don't eat no mashed potatoes,
G (D)
Don't eat no buttered scones
G
Stay away from carbohydrates
G D G D
You're gonna look like skin and bone.
G
Living on the edge of starvation
D
And she says she's got no appetite
G C
And her father and her mother
C# D
And her sisters and her brothers
Couldn't see her when she walked by
G
She looked like skin and bone.
G
Don't eat no mashed potatoes,
G (D)
Don't eat no buttered scones
G
Stay away from carbohydrates
G D G
You're gonna look like skin and bone.
C C# D
She used to be so cuddly,
C C# D
She used to be so fat,
C C# D
But oh what a sin cos she's oh so thin
That she lost all the friends that she had,
G
She looks like skin and bone
C C# D
If you look flabby
C C# D
And you feel overweight,
C C# D
And you wanna lose a couple of stone,
Take a crash course diet do your daily exercises
G
And you'll look like skin and bone.
G
Come on rattle them bones,
G (D)
Put your hands up to the ceiling,
G
Bend your hips and touch your toes,
G
Do your daily exercises,
D G
You're gonna look like skin and bone,
G
Don't eat no mashed potatoes, etc.
