[Sampled Intro] I eat too much to die and not enough to stay alive. Im sitting in the middle waiting. [Verse 1] Days since I last pissed Cheeks sunken and despaired So gorgeous, sunk to 6st Lose my only remaining home See my third rib appear A week later all my flesh disappears Stretch taut, clingfilm on bone Im getting better [Bridge 1] Karen says Ive reached my target weight Kate and Emma and Kristen know its fake Problem is diets not a big enough word I wanna be so skinny that I rot from view [Chorus] Ah ah, ah ah ah I want to walk in the snow And not leave a footprint Ah ah, ah ah ah I want to walk in the snow And not soil its purity [Verse 2] 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 visions 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 [Bridge 2] Mother tries to choke me with roast beef And sits savouring her sole Ryvita Thats the way youre built my father said But I can change, my cocoon shedding [Chorus] Ah ah, ah ah ah I want to walk in the snow And not leave a footprint Ah ah, ah ah ah I want to walk in the snow And not soil its purity [Outro] Kate and Kristin and Kit Kat All things I like looking at Too weak to fuss, too weak to die Choice is skeletal in everybodys life I choose, my choice, I starve to frenzy Hunger soon passes and sickness soon tries Legs bend, stockinged I am Twiggy And I dont mind the horror that surrounds me Selfworth scatters, selfesteems a bore I long since moved to a higher plateau This disciplines so rare so please applaud Just look at the fat scum who pamper me so Yeah, 4st 7, an epilogue of youth Such beautiful dignity in selfabuse Ive finally come to understand life Through staring blankly at my navel
ah, snow, kate, footprint, rib
