i hear she's lean, now...so they say
i thought that little wild one...still weighed a ton
i guess she kinda scared herself...bein' so plump
cause it can really strain your heart

ricki lake lost her blubber
guess she had to call the doc for help
set her up on a diet full of kelp
ricki don't bouce like rubber
she is down to skin and bones
she was cuter when she was fatter
with lots of rolls

i hear she slimmed it down...half of the frame
has she been a-dietin'...in cole slaw mode ?
still the same inside ?...the same dame ?...i don't know
i guess that she was off the chart

ricki lake lost her blubber
once she used to pinch more than an inch
trimmed it up when her trousers wouldn't cinch
ricki don't bounce like rubber
she has left fried foods behind
she don't pig out on cookie batter
when she's at home

i told myself, i didn't mind
i ain't the chubby chasin' kind
but still i liked her heavy parts

ricki lake lost her blubber
now i've got a crush on someone else
found a girl even fatter than myself
ricki don't bounce like rubber
now she's got her own talk show
and they'll fire her if she gets fatter
and send her home

ricki lake lost her blubber
ricki lake lost her blubber
