  • Hey, skinny skinny
    Don't you think about the future
    Hey, skinny skinny
    Too bad (too bad)
    Hey, skinny skinny
    Stop your thinking 'bout tomorrow
    You'll never make it like that (too bad)

    My second face, my damn reflection
    We always meet when I'm defeated
    You tear me up all of the time
    My second face, don't wanna listen
    We always meet without permission

    You tear me up all of the time

    Hey, skinny skinny
    Don't you think about the future
    Hey, skinny skinny
    Too bad (too bad)
    Hey, skinny skinny
    Stop your thinking 'bout tomorrow
    You'll never make it like that (too bad)

    (Ooh)
    I wanna eat, I wanna stay thin
    (Ooh)
    I wanna dance but I gotta stay in
    Hey, skinny skinny
    Don't you think about the future
    Hey, skinny skinny
    Too bad (too bad)

    I'm skin and bone, I'm made of nothing
    My secret pose, my secret ending
    You tear me up all of the time
    My tongue is tasteless, my heart is barren
    My fingers stretching into my larynx

    You tear me up all of the time

    Hey, skinny skinny
    Don't you think about the future
    Hey, skinny skinny
    Too bad (too bad)
    Hey, skinny skinny
    Stop your thinking 'bout tomorrow
    You'll never make it like that (too bad)

    (Ooh)
    I wanna eat, I wanna stay thin
    (Ooh)
    I wanna dance but I gotta stay in
    Hey, skinny skinny
    Don't you think about the future
    Hey, skinny skinny
    Too bad, too bad

    Too bad, bad, bad
    Too bad, too bad
    Too bad, bad, bad
    Too bad

    Hey, skinny skinny
    Don't you think about the future
    Hey, skinny skinny
    Too bad (too bad)
    Hey, skinny skinny
    Stop your thinking 'bout tomorrow
    You'll never make it like that (too bad)

    (Ooh)
    I wanna eat, I wanna stay thin
    (Ooh)
    I wanna dance but I gotta stay in
    Hey, skinny skinny
    Don't you think about the future
    Hey, skinny skinny
    Too bad, too bad

    Too bad, bad, bad
    Too bad (skinny skinny)
    Too bad (skinny skinny)
    Too bad, bad, bad
    Too bad (skinny skinny)
    Too bad (skinny skinny)
