It started out when she was small

She was premature

She wasn't nothing at all

Two pounds six ounces

A little pumpkin seed

But she got more love

Than you ever gonna need

She got big fat love

She got big fat love

She don't eat enough

To keep her alive

When she bends over

She's a quarter to five

Skinny little thing

But she ain't afraid

To dance the Watusi

On a razorblade

She got big fat love

She got big fat love

Tiny little hands

Tiny little nose

Tiny little footsteps

Wherever she goes

Little bit don't leave

No bathtub ring

You pull the plug

She's down the drain

She got big fat love

She got big fat love

She got big fat love

Bigger than me

Bigger than you

Bigger than the hippo

Down at the zoo

Thin is in

Stout is out

Big fat love

Is what I'm talking about

She got big fat love

She got big fat love

She got big fat love

She got big fat love
