Grapefruit Diet

Weird Al Yankovic

Transposer:

INTRO/RIFF verse 1 Who’s that waddlin’ down the street? It’s just me ’cause I love to eat Fudge and Twinkies and deviled ham. Who’s real flabby? Yes I am! Every picture of me’s gotta be an aerial view. Now my doctor tells me there’s just one thing left to do: Chorus 1 Grapefruit Diet (Diet!) throw out the pizza and beer. Grapefruit Diet (Diet!) get those jelly donuts out of here. Grapefruit Diet (Diet!) it might seem a little severe. Grapefruit Diet (Diet!) I’m gettin’ tired of my big fat rear. RIFF Blow fatty! verse 2 Well I used to live on chocolate sauce; Made sumo wrestlers look like Kate Moss. Walked down an alley and I got stuck. I got more rolls than a pastry truck. When I’m all done eating I eat a little more. When I leave a room first I gotta grease the door. Chorus 2 Grapefruit Diet; (Diet!) can’t have another eclair. Grapefruit Diet (Diet!) I gotta decrease my derriere. BREAK (I’m fairly unsure about these chords)                       | | | I’m on a Grapefruit Diet!                       | | |      I’m on a Grapefruit Diet!                       | | | I’m on a Grapefruit Diet! verse 3 (there’s not really any chords here but I think this sounds okay) No more pie now. No more creme brulee Lay off the gravy and souffle No french fri-yi-yies now. No ice cream parfait. Mr. Cheese Nacho; stay away. Oh I think I’d sell my soul for a triple patty melt But I need a boomerang when I put on my belt. Chorus 3 Grapefruit Diet (Diet!) lay off the 3 Musketeers. Grapefruit Diet (Diet!) until my big booty disappears. Grapefruit Diet; (Diet!) I’ll eat ’em till they’re comin’ out of my ears. Grapefruit Diet (Diet!) ’cause I haven’t seen my feet in years BREAK                       | | | I’m on a Grapefruit Diet!                       | | | I’m on a Grapefruit Diet!                       | | | I’m on a Grapefruit Diet! OUTRO I think I’m about ready for a quarter pounder with extra cheese. I need a side order of onion rings and oh don’t forget to super-size that.

La chanson évoque d’une manière humoristique les luttes liées à la perte de poids et aux régimes alimentaires. Le protagoniste se moque de ses habitudes alimentaires peu saines, remplissant sa vie de sucreries et de fritures, tout en se rendant compte qu’il doit changer son mode de vie en se tournant vers un régime à base de pamplemousse. Il fait un contraste entre son amour de la nourriture et la nécessité de se restreindre, parlant de son corps de manière comique, en exagérant ses difficultés à se déplacer ou à s’habiller à cause de son surpoids. Cette approche satirique souligne la tension entre le plaisir de manger et les pressions sociales qui pèsent sur l'image corporelle, le tout sur un fond entraînant et caricatural.
