I'm not thick
I'm not pleasantly plump
I will never be a stick
But my ass will always be bigger than a camels hump
I step on the scale
And it goes out of control
Spinning and spinning and now I'm starting to turn pale
Now I look in the mirror and my hands start to tremble
I can't fight back the tears
Because I wish my body was just a rental
To have a new body would change my world
I wouldn't have to go to the bathroom every time eat
And have everyone know that I just hurled
I could wear a dress and let my legs show
I could get ready in 5 minutes
And I wouldn't be the one getting yelled at every morning "why are you always so slow?"
Because I would no longer have to cover my rolls
Or put pounds of makeup on over my moles
Everyone tells me I'm beautiful, there is nothing wrong!
"You have body dismorphia"
"Just keep hanging on!"
Don't tell me that what I see isn't true
And that my eyes deceive me
I know what I see, and you should be saying "moo"
Because I'm clearly a cow
And if you asked me how I got here
I simply wouldn't know how
