Lyrics for 4st 7lbs by Manic Street Preachers:
| | | Artist: | Manic Street Preachers |
| | Album: | Holy Bible | | Track: | 4st 7lbs | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 80 | | | | Lyrics: | I eat too much to die
And not enough to stay alive
I'm sitting in the middle
waiting
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
Stretching taut, cling-film on bone
I'm getting
better
Karen says I've reached my target weight
Kate and Emma and Kristin know it's
fake
Problem is diet's not a big enough word
I wanna be so skinny that I rot from
view
I want to walk in the snow
And not leave a footprint
I want to walk in the
snow
And not soil its purity
Stomach collapsed at five
Lift up my skirt my sex
is gone
Naked and lovely and 5st. 2
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
Mother trys to choke me with roast
beef
And sits savouring her sole Ryvitta
That's the way you're built my father
said
But I can change, my cocoon shedding
I want to walk in the snow
And not
leave a footprint
I want to walk in the snow
And not soil its purity
Kate and
Kristin 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 tires
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
Yeh 4st. 7, an epilogue of
youth
Such beautiful dignity in self-abuse
I've finally come to understand
life
Through staring blankly at my navel | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
