If I were a thin girl

This popped in my head yesterday , while battling the stomach rumbles and counting the minutes to my next meal. My apologies to the fine writers who created Fiddler on The Roof, but Tevia can serve as a good role model for one embarking on weight loss




If I were a thin girl( tune of If I were a rich man)
If I were a thin girl
Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.
All day long I'd sniggle iggle up.
If I were a skinny girl.
I wouldn't have to count points.
Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.
If I were an itty bitty ish,
Skinny mini thinny winny girl


I'd buy my bras and panties at Victoria's Secret
Right in the middle of the mall.
They'd be in blue and green and fiery fuchsia
There would be one long staircase just going up,
There would be ones for days when I feel like a siren
and ones when I'm feeling like a prude
And others for no reason, just because


I'd fill my closets to the brim with new styles all shown in the fashion mags
For the sake of looking cool
and each new shrug and jeans and croptop and babydoll
would make heads turn my way
As if to say "There goes a skinny girl."

If I were a thin girl
Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.
All day long I'd sniggle iggle up.
If I were a skinny girl.
I wouldn't have to count points.
Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.
If I were an itty bitty ish,
Skinny mini thinny winny girl.


I see my hubby standing, looking like Fabio tonight
.With hair whipping in the wind
( hey it's a fantasy after all)
I see him whisk me off on horseback at sunset
Oy, what a change there's been in him
.All because I am a skinny girl


The most delicious treats in town the will not fatten me
There's no need to count calories
Food just burns off
One of these, Reb Tevye
three of these Reb Tevye
Racking up calories that would cross Jillian's eyes !!!
And it doesn't matter how many points I ate be they good or bad
When your thin it don't matter anymore


If I were thin I would not need time on a track
To walk and walk each day
And maybe then I'd toss my scale away
.I'd write some blogs to tell folks just how I did it ,yes I would surely know the way
Cause when you're thin they think you really know

If I were a thin girl
Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.
All day long I'd sniggle iggle up.
If I were a skinny girl.
I wouldn't have to count points.
Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.
If I were an itty bitty ish,
Skinny mini thinny winny girl
