A woman at the airport Blamed her excess weight On her metabolism Not, on what she ate I gave her the once over Which wasn't really nice Because of all the space she took I had to do it twice She complained it was her body That played this trick on her she giggled as she said it acting quite demure Her chin reached to her cleavage And her cleavage reached her knees She was sitting drinking soda And eating hamburgers in threes She had a super sandwich Some chicken and a pop It seemed that once she started This woman couldn't stop Then my mind turned inward I truly understood what she had said The answer to her problem Was truly in MY head She blamed metabolism She meant Met-a-bowl-ism...psych!! It was then I thought she'd never Met - A - Bowl..she didn't like!

Metabolism
A woman at the airport Blamed her excess weight On her metabolism Not, on what she ate I gave her the once over Which wasn't really nice Because of all the space she took I had to do it twice She complained it was her body That played this trick on her she giggled as she said it acting quite demure Her chin reached to her cleavage And her cleavage reached her knees She was sitting drinking soda And eating hamburgers in threes She had a super sandwich Some chicken and a pop It seemed that once she started This woman couldn't stop Then my mind turned inward I truly understood what she had said The answer to her problem Was truly in MY head She blamed metabolism She meant Met-a-bowl-ism...psych!! It was then I thought she'd never Met - A - Bowl..she didn't like!
