Lyrics
I used to be quite active in high school Back when my metabolic rate was faster I was always quite stocky But I was pretty good at hockey I avoided white bread, potatoes and pasta I used to be an average mammal I was no Jessie Owens, but I wasn't John Candy I was never that attractive But I was reasonably active I sure wasn't synonymous with lazy I don't think I'm that apathetic I'll admit, I'm not particularly ambitious But the fact that on the ground I don't break the speed of sound Is typical of megalonychidae colipas Oh God, were ya really being fair When you named the land animals And birds of the air Did you stop to think, that's a bit rough Calling that poor little fella a sloth
