[Sampled Intro]

"I eat too much to die

And not enough to stay alive

I'm sitting in the middle waiting."

[Verse 1]

Days since I last pissed

Cheeks sunken and despaired

So gorgeous, sunk to six stone

Lose my only remaining home

See my third rib appear

A week later, all my flesh disappears

Stretch it taut, cling-film on bone

I'm getting better

[Bridge 1]

Karen says I've reached my target weight

Kate and Emma and Kristen know it's fake

Problem is, diet's not a big enough word

I wanna be so skinny that I rot from view

[Chorus]

I, I, I, I, I

Wanna walk in the snow

And not leave a footprint

I, I, I, I, I

Wanna walk in the snow

And not soil its purity

[Verse 2]

Stomach collapsed at five

Lift up my skirt, my sex is gone

Naked and lovely at five stone two

May I bud and never flower

My vision's getting blurred

But I can see my ribs and I feel fine

My hands are trembling stalks

And I can feel my breasts are sinking

[Bridge 2]

Mother tries to choke me with roast beef

And sits savouring her sole Ryvita

"That's the way you're built," my father said

But I can change, my cocoon shedding

[Chorus]

I, I, I, I, I

Wanna walk in the snow

And not leave a footprint

I, I, I, I, I

Wanna walk in the snow

And not soil its purity

[Outro]

Kate and Kristen and Kit Kat

All things I like looking at

Too weak to fuss, too weak to die

Choice is skeletal in everybody's life

I choose my choice, I starve to frenzy

Hunger soon passes and sickness soon tries

Legs bend, stockinged, I am Twiggy

And I don't mind the horror that surrounds me

Self-worth scatters, self-esteem's a bore

I long since moved to a higher plateau

This discipline's so rare, so please applaud

Just look at the fat scum who pamper me so

Yeah, four stone seven: an epilogue of youth

Such beautiful dignity in self-abuse

I've finally come to understand life

Through staring blankly at my navel
