Yankovic, Weird Al - Grapefruit Diet Lyrics






Who's that waddlin' down the street?
It's just me, 'cause I love to eat
Fudge and Twinkies and deviled ham
Who's real flabby? Yes, I am!
Every picture of me's
Gotta be an aerial view
Now my doctor tells me
There's just one thing left to do..

Grapefruit Diet (Diet!)
Throw out the pizza and beer
Grapefruit Diet (Diet!)
Oh, get those jelly donuts out of here
Grapefruit Diet (Diet!)
Might seem a little severe
Grapefruit Diet (Diet!)
I'm gettin' tired of my big fat rear
Blow, fatty!

Well, I used to live on chocolate sauce
Made sumo wrestlers look like Kate Moss
Walked down an alley and I got stuck
I got more rolls than a pastry truck
When I'm all done eating
I eat a little more
When I leave a room
First I gotta grease the door

Grapefruit Diet (Diet!)
Can't have another éclair
Grapefruit Diet (Diet!)
I gotta decrease my derriere

I'm on a Grapefruit Diet
I'm on a Grapefruit Diet
I'm on a Grapefruit Diet

No more pie now
No more créme brulee
Lay off the gravy
And souffle
No french fri-yi-yies now
No ice cream parfait
Mr. Cheese Nacho
Stay away

Oh, I think I'd sell my soul
For a triple patty melt
But I need a boomerang
When I put on my belt

Grapefruit Diet (Diet!)
Lay off the 3 Musketeers
Grapefruit Diet (Diet!)
Until my big booty disappears
Grapefruit Diet (Diet!)
Eat 'em till they're comin' out of my ears
Grapefruit Diet (Diet!)
'Cause I haven't seen my feet in years

I'm on a Grapefruit Diet
I'm on a Grapefruit Diet
I'm on a Grapefruit Diet

I think I'm about ready for a Quarter Pounder with extra cheese
I need a side order of onion rings
And don't forget to Super-Size that
Yeah

Yankovic, Weird Al Grapefruit Diet Comments
  1. -.... B....

    1987: He's bragging about how fat he is.
    1999: He's complaining about how fat he is.

  2. 9.... ....

    I can't help but think this song wouldn't be made now

  3. P.... G....

    When I was younger I thought this was an original song by Weird Al, but then thanks to google and youtube I found the original version of Zoot Suit Riot.

  4. D.... ....

    I use this song to tap dance workout, I always get tired before the song is over

  5. C.... H....

    All's FAT days: EAT IT--> FAT--> REALLY INACTIVE--> GRAPEFRUIT DIET


    your welcome

  6. I.... 7....

    "i'd sell my soul for a triple patty melt, but then I'd need a boomarang to put on my belt!"

  7. J.... S....

    Everything can go except for the ice cold beer you gotta put your foot down somewhere

  8. m.... b....

    Great musicians on this one, especially the part were they were mimicking the vocals.

  9. M.... ....

    that pic needs a hot wheels immediately infront of him.

  10. B.... W....

    Or eat oranges all day until you have an explosive event on a toilet. My explosive event echoed through the house even though I have never been more than 10 pounds over weight. I had a very strong pain in the lower left part of my gut just before I was nearly launched off of the toilet seat. Several members of my family tried it in the 80’s. One older guy in church tried it too and his big belly shrunk down a bit. I suggest seeing a Doctor before trying it.

    B.... W....

    This made MY day

  11. C.... G....

    Who is Kate Moss???

    C.... G....

    Fashion model.

    C.... G....

    anorexic runway model

  12. P.... T....

    I can only hear the original lyrics. Like, I only hear "RIOT!" instead of "DIET!"

    P.... T....

    I have the opposite problem. I can't hear the original and not think of this.

    P.... T....

    A grapefruit riot would be better tbh

    P.... T....

    @elixiriszog Weird Al has "ruined" tons of songs for me in this way.

  13. L.... A....

    BLOW FATTY!!

  14. b.... s....

    I used to listen to this all the time when I was a kid. this song introduced me to Weird Al.

  16. K.... M....

    When I leave a room first I gotta grease the door....

    😂🤣😂🤣😂

  17. J.... A....

    I haven’t heard this song in years, but I still say the line “make sumo wrestlers look like Kate Moss” out of nowhere every now and again.

    J.... A....

    You're a jerk

  18. c.... ....

    There's a complete 1999 concert on you tube. Al's energy is through the roof!!!
    I can't hear this song without seeing him dancing up a storm!

  19. C.... S....

    Parody of Zoot Suit Riot by Cherry Poppin' Daddies

    C.... S....

    Zoot Suit Riot is actually a parody of grapefruit diet

  20. M.... M....

    So sad that this piece is so often overlooked.
