I came up with the idea for the storyline and John ran with it while I started recording tracks. We kept adding parts and it just came out great. When it came time to record the vocals, I was listening while recording without actually knowing what John had written. I couldn&#8217;t watch him because if I did, I would have laughed and we would have had to start over. This is definitely our hit song from the first album.<br>Jeff<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lyrics by John Lister<br>She went down to the local grocery store<br>She went to buy salad but left with something more<br>She seems to be looking tight in her slip<br>Cuz shes eating all those sammiches and chips<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chips they have large amounts of fat<br>And shes really trying to keep her tummy flat<br>She just cannot seem to fight that urge<br>To violently binge and purge<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chorus:<br>Hey Ho, like a whale ya blow<br>It tasted really swell but now it&#8217;s chunky on the floor<br>Hey Ho, ya better slow down<br>Down on eatin&#8217; sammiches and chips<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Deep fried chicken and eskimo pie<br>You eat that chocolate cake it&#8217;s gonna fatten your thighs<br>You eat too much and then it&#8217;s too late<br>Your supper&#8217;s never done until you regurgitate<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She may just have bulimia<br>And it seems to be extremia<br>Would you like that Shake a bit creamia<br>Forget about your hypoglycemia<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Notes:This was one that just started with an idea and John and I just ran [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-97","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-1st"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lobsteroptimus.com\/ltd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lobsteroptimus.com\/ltd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lobsteroptimus.com\/ltd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lobsteroptimus.com\/ltd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lobsteroptimus.com\/ltd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=97"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/lobsteroptimus.com\/ltd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":98,"href":"https:\/\/lobsteroptimus.com\/ltd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97\/revisions\/98"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lobsteroptimus.com\/ltd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=97"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lobsteroptimus.com\/ltd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=97"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lobsteroptimus.com\/ltd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=97"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
