there’s no prize waiting at the bottom of the bag
no throng of friends congratulating
another 1242 calories to tack onto this body
this skin will have to stretch to reach another size
keep it up, we’re pushing 200

the numbers on the scale aren’t lying, honey
numbers should be familiar at this point
per 1 box of cookies, 233 calories
12.14 g of fat, 36.22 g of carbs
straight to your blood stream and
straight to your thighs

down another pint of ice cream
if it’ll make you feel better
just remember to count from 1000
up to the next dose of saturated fats
daddy’s little girl is catching up fast

first step obesity, next step diabetes
let’s find a cute doctor this time
