See it all around you
Good muffin gone bad
And usually it's too late, when you realize what you had
And I'm blind as a bat in a world, and I've got ulcers
On my old feet

Just lay off pastry
Sweet n' low
In your iced tea
You're gonna lose your toe
You're givin' a shot of insulin
A whole lotta painful prickin'

I'm so damn queasy
When blood sugar goes up
Hold on to your meter
You test it too much

And I'm blind as a bat in a world, and I've got ulcers
On my old feet
Just lay off pastry
Sweet n' low
In your iced tea
You're gonna lose your toe

Don't let life slip away
Said I ate some food
Don't let coma set in -- no way
Yeah, yeah, yeah

That food all around you
Good muffin gone bad
And usually it's too late when you, realize what you had
And I'm blind as a bat in a world, and I've got ulcers
On my old feet

Just lay off pastry
Sweet n' low
In your iced tea
You're gonna lose your toe

Your givin' a shot of insulin
A whole lotta painful prickin'

So lay off pastry
Sweet n' low
If you drink some sweet tea, baby
You're gonna lose it
You're gonna lose -- your toes

Yeah, yeah, yeah

So lay off pastry
Sweet n' low
In your iced tea
You're gonna lose your toe

Lay off pastry
Sweet n' low
If you get a freakin' ulcer
You're gonna lose your toes
Yeah, yeah, yeah
