letra de that is why you're overweight - eddie harris
(lord have mercy.)
i had three doughnuts and two cups of coffee
but that didn’t stop my appet-te
i had only eaten a box of cookies
very late last night
i had ten pancakes, plenty of syrup and b-tter, and two slices of ham;
three eggs, home fries, and four biscuits, all smothered in jam;
two gl-sses of milk, and a cheesecake; i thought i didn’t want any more
i just had to buy twelve of those mints in that bowl by the door
[chorus]
that is why, that is why … that is why you’re overweight
[spoken]
heh … i wish i had some brains and grits!
[chorus]
that is why, that is why … that is why you’re overweight
[spoken]
i certainly would like a taste of some of that coffee cake over there! it do look good
lord have mercy!
now it’s lunchtime, and i believe i’ll eat again
i’m not gonna eat as much as i did for breakfast, because i want to get thin
let me have a bowl of chile con carne, and two corned beefs on rye;
a large order of french fries, a malt, and a slice of banana cream pie;
two candy bars, one soda, for my late-afternoon snack;
and-a two bags of potato chips, so i won’t have to come back
[chorus]
that is why, that is why … that is why you’re overweight
[spoken]
i should have gotten two cheeseburgers with everything on ’em! lord have mercy
[chorus]
that is why, that is why … that is why you’re overweight
[spoken]
i’m gonna go back to eating a bag of peanuts for my snacks
lord, lord, lord have mercy
while waiting for my dinner
i had four shots of alcohol
a chef’s salad with lots of dressing and crackers, but not much meat at all
had a steak, candied yams, rice, lemonade, macaroni and cheese
corn bread, banana pudding, and a side order of black-eyed peas
i stopped at the grocery store, i’m gonna load up my refrigerator
i’m gonna sit down and watch television, and i’ll have something to eat later
[chorus]
that is why, that is why … that is why you’re overweight
[spoken]
i’ll sure be glad when that pizza is ready!
[chorus]
that is why, that is why … that is why you’re overweight
[spoken]
i can’t seem to find nothing else in this refrigerator to suit me
[chorus]
that is why, that is why … that is why you’re overweight
[spoken]
don’t know what you’re talking about; i’m going to the smorgasbord, tomorrow and the next day and the day after [?]
[chorus]
that is why, that is why … that is why you’re overweight
[spoken]
you better [?] signifying with me, talkin’ ’bout i’m overweight, ’cause i eat what i want to eat! tastes good to me. lord have mercy it’s good; all that food is good! i wish i had some more to eat. you’re always talking about overweight, shoot, everybody talkin’ bout it … whoever said skinny people’s healthy anyway? … gotta eat to live; anything you eat, you gonna get fat …
