Out of a thimble; the dieters symbol; Longing for wine and brulle.

Living on food precooked and pre chewed; Im starting to envy Rover!
His gravy soaked dinner; Makes him look young and thinner;
While I look like deaths been warmed over!

I have to stick to it; Eat lettuce and suet;
Whatever the doctor says pays.
Ill lock up the forks; Walk round trip to New York;
Or go out in my backyard to graze.

My husband must sneak; Every meal that he eats;
In the dark, in the closet, alone.
Cause If I see good food; Ill just come unglued;
While I diet we both must atone!

Six months from now; If we each keep our vow;
We can get back to life where we paused it!
Well both be winners: Ill look 4 sizes thinner;
And he can come out of the closet!

Im on a diet; the kitchen is quiet. I’m dining on breadcrumb souffle.
Out of a thimble; the dieters symbol; Longing for wine and brulle.

Living on food precooked and pre chewed; Im starting to envy Rover!
His gravy soaked dinner; Makes him look young and thinner;
While I look like deaths been warmed over!

I have to stick to it; Eat lettuce and suet;
Whatever the doctor says pays.
Ill lock up the forks; Walk round trip to New York;
Or go out in my backyard to graze.

My husband must sneak; Every meal that he eats;
In the dark, in the closet, alone.
Cause If I see good food; Ill just come unglued;
While I diet we both must atone!

Six months from now; If we each keep our vow;
We can get back to life where we paused it!
Well both be winners: Ill look 4 sizes thinner;
And he can come out of the closet!
