Mother Mother - Fat Kids Lyrics






I was a fat kid
He was a fat kid
She was a fat kid too

When you are a fat kid
You will always bite off
More than you could ever chew

We could never run fast
We were always picked last
Staring at our new gym shoes

When you are a fat kid
Your friends are always fat kids
Sweatin' to the fat kid blues

Cakes puddings and pies
These are the apples of our little eyes
Cookies and cream puffs with something inside
Something inside
Oh
Making us wide
Oh

Standing in the corner
Staring at the dance floor
Watching all the thin kids groove

When you are a fat kid
You can never practice
All your little fat kid moves

Kissin' on my pillow
Wishin' it was skin though
Betty from my homeroom class

But what the real' sad fact is
If Betty was a fat kid
I don't think I'd want to as

If Betty was a halfer
I don't think I'd address
And these are just the fat kid facts

Cakes puddings and pies
These are the things I will love and despise

We don't count sheep we count roast chicken thighs
Full
Fat kids fall over
And roast chicken breast
They'll fight 'till their deaths

I was a fat kid
He was a fat kid
She was a fat kid too

When you are a fat kid
You will always bite off
More than you could ever chew

Oh oh oh oh
Oh

    I had a dream where this song was playing. best dream ever

  2. S.... F....

    Thanks to this song I sometimes close my sentences with "and those are just the fat kid facts" lmao

  3. A.... ....

    I guess we are all fat kids huh? we are all searching for something to make us whole inside. And, well, the most common thing we use to make that hole of disappointment & loneliness go away: food.

  4. F.... B....

    Hits a little too close to home you know what I'm sayin'.

  5. p.... ....

    I was a fat kid
    He was a fat kid
    She was a fat kid too

    When you are a fat kid
    You will always bite off
    More than you could ever chew

    We could never run fast
    We were always picked last
    Staring at our new gym shoes

    When you are a fat kid
    All your friends are fat kids
    Sweatin' to the fat kid blues

    Cakes puddings and pies
    These are the apples of our little eyes
    Cookies and cream puffs with something inside
    Something inside
    Oh
    Making us wide
    Oh

    Standing in the corner
    Staring at the dance floor
    Watching all the thin kids groove

    When you are a fat kid
    You can never practice
    All your little fat kid moves

    Kissin' on my pillow
    Wishin' it was skin though
    Betty from my homeroom class

    But what the real' sad fact is
    If Betty was a fat kid
    I don't think I'd want to ask

    If Betty was a heffer
    I don't think I'd address her
    And these are just the fat kid facts

    Cakes puddings and pies
    These are the things that we love and despise

    We don't count sheep we count roast chicken thighs
    Full
    Roast chicken thighs
    Fat kids fall over
    And roast chicken breasts
    They'll fight 'till their deaths

    I wish they would still do obscure stuff. I wonder why they dont anymore. The most recent album sounds like such radio music

    A.... K....

    I WAS JUST WISHING THIS TOO

    A.... K....

    @eridan ampora It's nice to know I'm not the only one that wants them to try and replicate their old stuff a little lol.

    A.... K....

    @Booz Naznaz, to be honest, the weird and obscured stuff is what drew me to them and now it's kinda sad that we don't see that anymore

    A.... K....

    i do really love their new music, because it still has so much quality but i really liked it when their music was so weird ;w;

    A.... K....

    honestly i like that they're trying something new each album! i do prefer their abstract, darker stuff too but honestly the themes in the newest one make me really happy and it still sounds really good! i definitely wouldnt mind if they went back to their roots more either, though haha and theyre also taking the "radio" sound and making it their own, i think.

  7. A.... T....

    I was a fat kid
    He was a fat kid
    She was a fat kid too

    When you are a fat kid
    You will always bite off

    We were always picked last
    Staring at our new gym shoes

    When you are a fat kid
    All your friends are fat kids
    Sweatin' to the fat kid blues

    Cakes puddings and pies
    These are the apples of our little eyes
    Cookies and cream puffs with something inside
    Something inside
    Oh
    Making us wide
    Oh

    Standing in the corner
    Staring at the dance floor
    Watching all the thin kids groove

    When you are a fat kid

    Full
    Roast chicken thighs

    And roast chicken breasts
    They'll fight 'till their deaths

    I was a fat kid
    He was a fat kid
    She was a fat kid too

    When you are a fat kid
    You will always bite off
    More than you could ever chew

    Oh oh oh oh
    Oh

  8. h.... ....

    I'm so confused about the lyrics... I'm so.. Off. I feel unsettled and I don't know why.
    ._.

    h.... ....

    It's basically about this person saying that they were fat as a kid and so were all their friends,and that they were outcasts

  9. J.... M....

    mother mother has so many songs about body image/eating disorders, and i love it.

  10. R.... P....

    Head=band members

  11. A.... I....

    I feel like that if this stayed, it would’ve made some sort of connection with “Oh Ana”

    A.... I....

    Oh Ana isn't actually about anorexia, Ana was just a random name they chose. I didn't find out until just a while ago lol

    A.... I....

    Shohei the Thot's Bane regardless there’s some pretty eating disordered messages in their songs :’) especially in “I go hungry” and somewhat in “ball cap” and definitely in “body” even if it wasn’t specifically about it :’)
    But that’s really interesting I didn’t know that

    A.... I....

    @Mathias Cronqvist May I ask where you found that out? I've looked around to see if they ever discussed the meaning behind it and couldn't find anything so it would be great of You could share!

    A.... I....

    Booz Naznaz I read that too, but I can’t remember where. Probably in an interview. Oh Ana has no meaning behind it. Ryan wrote the song in music school and later on just added nonsense lyrics. But you can interpret it any way you want

  12. M.... ....

  16. L.... A....

    I was a fat kid, then I starved myself

    L.... A....

    no one asked

    L.... A....

    Levi Ackerman get help :/

    L.... A....

    Same here... It was sh*tty as h*ll... I'm sorry some people didn't seem to want to hear it... I was just lucky a friend talked me out of it... I still do it from time to time... It's a tough war but we can still win it against ourselves... I believe in you... And I believe in me... ( ^ w ^)

  17. S.... F....

    i fucking love this. I cant stop laughing

  18. A.... G....

    Anyone know the other unreleased song from this album before the re-release? :)

    A.... G....

    Yes, there's Mamma Told Me!

    A.... G....

    @Leandro Luz There's also one called Babies, and Mamma Told Me has a hidden track called "Home Recording."

    A.... G....

    Also Love to Death I think? Yeah I'm absolutely late but y kno

  19. J.... S....

    This is the song that was on the original self titled album Mother when the band was still called mother before they had to change their name, and this is one of I think TWO songs that were removed from the album when they signed and re-released it and replaced the song with their two singles they did videos for.

    J.... S....

    I had issues in high school... almost traumatizing. Horrible. It could have been worse I suppose. I could have been fat.

    J.... S....

    Where can I find the full mother album?

    J.... S....

    @Pistolshrimp 777 it shares most of the songs with touch up (since touch up is a re-release). but if you want to know the order of the songs for mother+the four songs not on touch up, then you could probably just search it on google

  20. E.... C....

    Molly Guldemond is the artist of that album cover.

    E.... C....

    Thanks, Eric!

    E.... C....

    Eric Chambers THANK YOU, MY SAVIOUR!
