lyrics

Satan's Elephant

Well I just can't pretend an interest
in lentils and beans
or flavorless, limp-wristed leafies,
as strange as it seems.
Though my weight may
belie my intentions,
I've give it my best.
I'm just waitin' on Satan's Elephant
to sit on my chest.

Now don't get me wrong,
I enjoy vegetating,
even if leisure's
the service of Satan.
My deal's done gone down,
I'm fat anyway.
So pass me them donuts,
let's do this today.

Perhaps it seems a mite backwards
to those inclined to snicker.
But my ancestral blood tends to run
towards the thicker.
I may serve as a source of amusement
to you, the unSouthern.
But Death's gonna snag us all,
one way or another'n.

Now don't get me wrong,
I enjoy vegetating,
even if rest is
the service of Satan.
My deal's done gone down,
I'm blissfully stout.
So haul out them pork rinds,
and let's just pig out.

Well, I just can't maintain an interest
in lentils and beets,
or deadly, uninteresting diets
and athletic feats.
My appetite for life has been sated.
I gave it my best.
I'm just waiting on Satan's Elephant
to sit on my chest.

Now don't get me wrong,
I enjoy vegetating,
even if leisure's
the service of Satan.
My deal's done gone down,
I'm dead anyhow,
so hand me the ice cream
and Cheezits right now.

No, don't get me wrong,
I enjoy vegetating,
even if resting's
the service of Satan.
My deal's done gone down,
I'm fat anyway,
so pass me them donuts,
let's do this today.
