lyrics

Battle Cry for the Skinny Fat Guy

Oh ye of skinny arms and skinny legs
But protruding belly
Lo, I sing to you of the skinny fat guy
Oh ye paunchy brethren
Know that when you order the extra cheese
I am with you
Know that your indulgences are not evil
That you too are sexy
Praise be to the women who have love for love handles
Gaze
Gaze into my cheese gut
Be not afraid
Tis better to find joy in life
To love thy self
Than waste away spending hours at the gym
And to all the washboard abs of the world
The shirtless sweat hogs
I drum my belly in defiance, and because I find it soothing
And I stand here before you happy and unashamed
To tell you
That while you’re at the gym
I am at the bar, on the beach, and at the poetry slam
Talking to your girlfriend
Being more emotionally available then you will ever be
We are the brave of belly fat
We are the heroes of happy hour
The cuddling corpulent
The soldiers of second helpings
We are the freemasons of foodbabies
We are the Monday night midnight ice cream sandwich
We are smarter than you
Will love harder than you
Because we had to work so much harder to get there
Beware washboards
Because paunchy
Is coming out
Punching!
