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