Skin And Bone

Huh – maybe if I was your doctor

Prescribing you with every pill

To find a little something to calm your nerves

Would be a remedy too hard to fill

Lately you’ve been looking peeky

Like something from the twiglet zone

I got to give you something to make you eat

‘cos honey you’re just skin and bone

Chorus

Skin and bone, you’re nothing but skin and bone

Skin and bone, where have you gone, where have you gone?

Skin and bone, you’re nothing but skin and bone

Skin and bone, where have you gone?

Ow – maybe if I was your lawyer

Suing everyone in sight

Serving you a writ on a silver dish

Might sharpen up your appetite

I can take you for a “Three course dinner”

From caviar to toblerone

But all you want to eat is your carrot cake

Honey you’re just skin and bone

Repeat chorus

It’s like surfing on a macaroni

Kissing on a guitar wire

I used to wrestle with an alligator

And get bitten by a crocodile

When you weighed a 100 kilo

Making out was twice the fun

But now them over sized clothes are hanging way too low

Over them skin and bones –

Repeat chorus
