lyrics

Johnny was a fat kid, he had diabetes
Johnny was a dumb kid, he would eat all the candy
And he mom would always say
"You'll lose your feet one day, amputated"
"Amputated"

And his mom he'd never obey
He'd say "mom, I'm happier this way"

Fat Johnny

Now his mom is mad
She won't give him candy
What will happen to Johnny,
What will happen to Johnny?

Have a sweetener to ease the pain
But all the effort made was all in vain
Have a sweetener to fill the void
But those delicious sweets were like his opioids
Have a sweetener to feed the lies
But the bitter aftertaste eats him inside

Momma can't you see, this is how it's meant to be?
My feet are getting numb, but I just don't care
As long as I get my sugar rush

Streams of sweets into his blood
Streams of sweets, that's what he loved

The wind will carry me away
To the dawn of another day
To a sea of sweets
I'll venture deep into its core
And I'll eat away until I can no more

Johnny was a fat kid, he used to run
Johnny was a dumb kid, but he had fun
