Lyrics[]
- Fat is where it's at...
- I love lasagna, and I like pizza too.
- I scream for ice cream, and I'm always in the mood for candy, it's dandy.
- A peanut butter and jelly in the belly sounds nice,
- Oh, what an appetite.
- And it's worth the wait...
- Call me anything but late for dinner, oh baby, 'cause,
- Fat is where it's at.
- Some say that thin is in, but don't pay no attention to that, 'cause,
- Fat is where it's at.
- The bigger, the better. I'm a super heavyweight cat.
- Every mornin’, and every evenin’ too,
- I have this fantasy of, of all my favorite foods:
- Spaghetti, yeah, ready,
- Turkey and mashed potatoes and gravy sounds nice,
- Oh, what an appetite.
- Don't forget the pie,
- If only your eyes were bigger than your stomach, 'cause,
- Fat is where it's at.
- Some say that thin is in, but don't pay no attention to that, 'cause,
- Fat is where it's at.
- The bigger, the better, and I'm a super heavyweight cat.
- Yeah boy!
- Give me an "F"!
- "F" is for fabulous food like French fries or fruit.
- "A" is for appetite, and I got a big one, hey, that's right!
- And "t", "tea" is a drink,
- And if you put all the letters together, I think they spell "fat"!
- And F-A-T is where it's at.
- Heeeeey, yeah!
- And it's worth the wait,
- Call me anything but late for dinner, oh baby, 'cause,
- Fat is where it's at.
- Some say that thin is in, but don't pay no attention to that, 'cause,
- Fat, fat, fat is where it's at.
- The bigger, the better, and I'm a super heavyweight cat, now,
- Fat, fat is where it's at.
- Some say that thin is in, but don't you pay no attention to that, 'cause,
- Fat, fat, fat, fat is where it's at.
- The bigger, the better, and I'm a super heavyweight cat.
- Garfield: Bon appetit.
