The Kinks
[Intro] [Verse] 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 [Verse] 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 [Chorus] Don’t eat no mashed potatoes don’t eat no buttered scones Stay away from carbohydrates you’re gonna look like skin and bone 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 couldn’t see her walk by [Chorus] Don’t eat no mashed potatoes 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 ’cause she’s oh so thin that she lost all the friends that she had She looks like skin and bone [Bridge] Bones and bones and skin and bones and bones and bones and skin and bones Bones and bones and skin and bones and bones and bones and skin and bones Bones and bones and skin and bones and bones and bones and skin and [Verse] 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 them bones [Verse] Put your hands up to the ceilin’ bend your hips and touch your toes Do your daily exercises you’re gonna look like skin and bone [Chorus] Don’t eat no mashed potatoes don’t eat no buttered scones Don’t eat no carbohydrates you’re gonna look like skin and bone Bones and bones and skin and bones and bones and bones and skin and bones
