Yesterday

(Tune: Yesterday [Beatles])

 

Yesterday, think of all the food I’d put away

Now I can’t believe how much I weigh

Oh why did twenty go away?

 

Suddenly, I am twice the man I used to be

There’s a spare tire hanging around me

Oh how the weight came suddenly

 

My metabolism won’t let me eat those fries

I ate something wrong now I wear a bigger size

 

Yesterday I could eat too much and be OK

Now I count calories every day

Oh when did I become this way?

 

Now I salivate for that pizza, just a piece

My cholesterol is so high my veins pump grease

 

Yesterday didn’t matter what went down my throat

Now I do not need a raft to float

Be careful, kiddies, when you gloat

M m m m m m m
