Introduction:
C
I eat to much to die and not enough to stay alive, I'm sitting in the middle, waiting
VERSE 1:
Am Dm
Karen says I've reached my target weight
G C
Kate and Emma and Kristin know it's fake, problem is diet's not a big enough word
B Em
I wanna be so skinny that I rot from view
CHORUS:
D#5 D5 C5 D5 D#5 D5 C5 D5
I, I, I, I, I want to walk in the snow and not leave a footprint
D#5 D5 C5 D5 D#5 D5 C5 D5
I, I, I, I, I want to walk in the snow and not soil its purity
VERSE 2:
Am Dm
Mother trys to choke me with roast beef
G C
And sits savouring her sole ryvita, that's the way you're built my father said
B Em
But I can change, my cocoon shedding
CHORUS:
D# D Cm D D# D Cm D
I, I, I, I, I want to walk in the snow and not leave a footprint
D# D Cm D D# D Cm D
I, I, I, I, I want to walk in the snow and not soil its purity
Db C F G
ENDING:
C F G
Kate and Kristin and Kit Kat, all things I like looking at
C F G Am
Too weak to fuss, too weak to die, choice is skeletal in everybody's life
C F G
I choose my choice, I starve to frenzy, hunger soon passes and sickness soon tires
C F G Am
Legs bend, stockinged I am Twiggy and I don't mind the horror that surrounds me
C F G
Self worth scatters, self esteem's a bore, I long since moved to a higher plateau
C F G Am
This discipline's so rare so please applaud, just look at the fat scum who pamper me so
C F G
Yeah four stone seven, an epilogue of youth, such beautiful dignity in self-abuse
C F G Am
I've finally come to understand life through staring blankly at my navel
