The Lyrics

A mother-to-daughter initiation of a different kind. Original tune & lyrics: http://www.niehs.nih.gov/kids/lyrics/circleof.htm
Darl, my daughter!
Must squeeze in your gut!
(With your MUMMM's undergarms, ya!)
Ahhh, my corset!
A neat little bra!
(As it JAMMMS in your tum, ya!)
A trim gut, yeah!
Slim up your posture!
Undergarms, here!
(Pinch that lard in, dress you for the gala...)

Lift your arms up, get your tummy tucked up! (What a bra!)
Lift your arms up, get your tummy tucked up! (Wonderous!)
"Mum, why bother? It is too much trouble!" (Not much fun!)
"Mum, why bother? It is too much trouble!"

Got a waist that's the size of a planet.
To shrink it, wrap with cloth at once!
A 'corset squeeze'. It can slim your physique,
And improve in the lifting of lumps!

Hmm... just one more notch now. Breathe in, dear!
Your behind is just ever so round!
Oh, your rump's swollen wide. You've some massive thighs.
Keep straight, I'll pull on your midriff now!

"Sheesh this girdle is tight!
I can't move at all!
Screw this petticoat!
They ache, my lungs!
Why'd you wind my waist...
With this ghastly binding?!
Jeez, it hurts. Ow!
This girdle is tight!"

(Pinch that lard in, dress you for the gala.
Pinch that lard in, dress you for the gala.
"But my posture's now like banana!"
"But my posture's now like a banana!")

(Dear, it's proper. Wear it in the parlour!
Dear, it's proper. Wear it in the parlour!
"Now my torso's becoming a martyr!"
"Now my torso's becoming a martyr!")

(Slim your blubber. Fit into this corset!
Slim your blubber. Fit into this corset!
"But my guts are hardly looking chubbers!"
"But my guts are hardly looking chubbers!")

(Yes they are, ya mustn't raid the larder!
Yes they are, ya mustn't raid the larder!
"Um, this garment cuts my blood supply off!"
"Um, this garment cuts my blood supply off!")

"Sheesh this girrrdle is tight!
I can't move at all!
Oh, it's very taut,
And makes me hunch!
Looks refined, my ass!
What'd you wrap my spine in?
Legs are purple!
This girdle is tiiight!"

*corset explodes with a BOOM!*
A waist is a terrible thing to bind.

5, it paces to the Disney song. 5, it's funny to imagine someone shouting so much over trying to fit into clothing. 5, the idea is original, if only for choosing the song and for your fitting of lines on the original's. Oh, and this song was done by Carmen Twillie in the movie not by the Lion King, neither Mufasa nor Simba or Elton John.
