The Kinks Follow

Fat flabby Annie was incredibly big
She weighed just about sixteen stone
And then a fake dietitian went and put her on a diet
Now she looks like skin and bone
She looks like skin and bone

Do the meditation and yoga
And she's thrown away the good food guide
And she's given up the alcohol the pizzas
And the pies and now she's lookin' like she's ready to die
You can't see her walk by

She don't eat no mashed potatoes
She don't eat no buttered scones
She don't eat no carbohydrates
You're gonna look like skin and bone, skin and bone

Living on the edge of starvation
And she says she's got no appetite
And her father and her mother
And her sisters and her brothers
Couldn't see her when she walked by
You can't see her walk by

She don't eat no mashed potatoes
She don't eat no buttered scones
Stay away from carbohydrates
You're gonna look like skin and bone

She used to be so cuddly
She used to be so fat
But oh what a sin 'cos she's oh so thin
That she lost all the friends that she had
She looks like skin and bone

Bones and bones and skin and bones and bones and bones and skin
Bones and bones and skin and bones and bones and bones and skin
Bones and bones and skin and bones and bones and bones and skin
Bones and bones and skin and bones and bones and bones and skin
She said, "Shh"

Skins and bones and bones and bones and bones and
Bones and bones and bones and bones
Bones and bones and skin and bones and bones and bones and skin
Bones and bones and skin and bones and bones and bones
Bones and bones and skin and bones and bones and bones and skin
Bones and bones and skin and bones and bones and bones

If you look flabby
And you feel overweight
And you wanna lose a couple of stone
Take a crash course diet do your daily exercises
And you'll look like skin and bone

Come on rattle them bones
Put your hands up in the ceiling
Bend your hips and touch your toes
Do your daily exercises
You're gonna look like skin and bone

Don't eat no carbohydrates
Don't eat no buttered scones
Stay away from mashed potatoes
You're gonna look like skin and bone, skin and bone
