Corn Dogs Lyrics

We both liked corn dogs at the start We once shared pastries from the cart I know that low cholesterol is good for my heart But these fights over what to eat are tearin' us apart When we were young we shared a common tongue We ate and ate and ate and ate and never gained a bit of weight But the years have changed our attitudes 'bout what is fit to eat You've become a lacto-vegetarian and I'm still into red meat We both liked corn dogs at the start We once shared pastries from the cart I know that low cholesterol is good for my heart But these fights over what to eat are tearin' us apart I know you feel that sodium will be the death of me And caffeine is /poison/...and it's in coffee /and/ in tea But the birdseed that you'd have me eat would make breakfast a bore And please don't tape those calorie charts on every cupboard door We once ate ice cream and french fries Now you say that every bit of fat goes straight to your thighs If you would just enjoy food I'd love you at any size Come share some cake with me, you're still skinny...in my eyes Our love could overcome this if only we would try I'd let you be macrobiotic if you'd let me have some pie I'd even give up bedtime snacks and take up exercise If you would be more flexible and try to compromise We both liked corn dogs at the start We once shared pastries from the cart I know that low cholesterol is good for my heart But these fights over what to eat are tearin' us apart
