[Chorus] Got to get a grip Skin and bones, it isn't such a pity If you think I'm vein, better shut your lips I can't explain how to be fat city You got to live large, got to let it rip [Chorus 2] Skin and bones, it isn't such a pity Don't give me no flack, honey shut your lip You got to have stones if you're living in the city If you want to hang loose got to get a grip rip [Verse 1] Once upon a crime I thought I was cool but I don't want to brag Once I crossed the line I think I must have zigged when I should have zagged [Chorus 1] [Verse 2] Same old same old every day If things don't change you're just gonna rot Because if you do what you've always done You'll always get what you always got Uh could that be nothing [Chorus 1] [Chorus 2] [Verse 3] Who knows for sure yeah without a doubt What goes on when the lights go out Or who pulls in when I pull out And what's a one eyed trouser trout? I was so short sighted Now the wrong been righted I feel so delighted I get so excited Skin and bones, it isn't such a pity If you think I'm vein, better shut you lip I can't explain how to be fat city You got to live large, got to let it rip [Chorus 2] [Verse 4] You want to get high in a New York minute Choke that smoke, honey crack the whip Your head gets dead, yea as long as you're in it You want to hang loose, got to get a grip [Chorus 2]
