TV dinners
Microwave winners
Watching my belly grow

Chopped barbecue
And hush puppies too
Watching my belly grow

No longer the runt
Now I'm way out in front
Watching my belly grow

Tarts and pies
Capture my eyes
Watching my belly grow

Cream Cheeze
A pound, please
Watching my belly grow

Drive to the store
Buy some more
Watching my belly grow

Big bags of chips
French Onion Dips
Watching my belly grow

Ice cream sundaes
Always fun days
Watching my belly grow

Baklava
Ha ha ha
Watching my belly grow

Beginning to lose
Sight of my shoes
Watching my belly grow

Forty-five years
Of pizzas and beers
Watching my belly grow

Old age
Is fold age
Watching my belly grow

Taters and beans
Bust my jeans
Watching my belly grow

Lean back in my chair
Have another eclaire
Watching my belly grow

Toast and jam
A plate full of ham
Watching my belly grow

Saturated fat
That's where it's at
Watching my belly grow

How far can it go?
Hell, I don't know!
I'm just watching my belly grow!
