Lyrics
Fat man blues words and music by john Bilinski c2000
The beds too small I got to squeeze in
Ceilings low the chairs too thin
House feels tight for a big man
I should do sumo in Japan
Heard people talking bout the size of my shoes
That?s when I found I had the fat man blues
It feels so strange it's nothing but trouble
I?m rearranged I quake and shudder
Woke up this morning thinking of food
I started busting out of my birthday suit
That?s when I found I had the fat man blues
I?m big sized just ask my mother
I can satisfy just ask my lover
I tell all the ladies it's going to be good
Most of the time it's understood
Heard people telling me I shouldn't be blue
That?s when I found I had the fat man blues
All you skinny people get off my back
Watch me slip and slide like a jelly sack
I?m deep inside somewhere between
500 pounds of human being
Somebody save me from this crazy ruse
That?s when I found I had the fat man blues
