(Ooh, ooh, sweet tea, yeah)

I just don't understand why I can't roll around in bed
Or other people when they see me question if I'm dead
With just a craving I was hungry
A little famished, I just wanted a snack
Well it all started with that double quarter pounder meal
How could I pass up buying twenty it was such a deal
But they didn't say, that I was gonna get fat
If I ate them all that day, how could I know

I exercise a little more since my remote has gone
My circulation has increased since all I do is yawn
So tell me why I'm having trouble fitting through the door
Real tight, I'm chafing
(I keep getting fatter)

Now I can't fit into any jeans
Busting out of all my seams
Can you tell me please
Why do I keep getting fatter

It couldn't have been that sausage I ate last night
Or guzzling down all those beers cause I made sure they were light
It couldn't have been that twenty-five-slice bacon platter
Oh tell me why do I keep getting fatter

I can't sleep at night when I struggle for air
Richard Simmons' got a TV show
Saying to me, I can help you shed those pounds
Wait a minute now I'm hungry (hungry), Let me heat some pizza
Now I flip the channel trying to find Leno
And then I see Emeril Live
All of that chicken grease
Now it's hurting my heart
I thought needed a doctor
But I just had to fart

Just look at all the pictures on the shelf
An athlete, thin, hair
How I used to be a playa in the club
It all started with that stupid little burger I ate for all of my meals
I think I'll sue for half a million, dollars
(I keep getting fatter)

Why can't I even pay for my car
Its just eighty candy bars
I don't understand, why do I keep getting fatter

Couldn't of been all that broccoli drowning in cheese
Couldn't of been when I ordered out it was just Chinese
It couldn't of been that forty pound bowl of cake batter
Oh tell me why do I keep getting fatter

Why did all my clothes suddenly rip
How'd the heck I break my hip
Someone tell me please, why do I keep getting fatter

Now I know it wasn't that pizza pie
Refuse to believe the sandwich the bread was rye
I might as well give up cause it no longer matters
No one's telling me why I keep getting fatter
