Lyrics Skin & Bone (2022 Remaster) by Ray Davies

Fat Flabby Annie was incredibly big
She weighed just about sixteen stone
And then a fake dietician went and put her on a diet
Now she looks like skin and bone
She looks like skin and bone

Do the meditation and yoga
And she's thrown away the Good Food Guide
And she's given up the alcohol and pizzas
And the pies and now she's looking like she's ready to die
You can't see her walk by

She don't eat no mashed potatoes
She don't eat no b***ered scones
Stay away from carbohydrates
You're gonna look like skin and bone (Skin and bone)

Living on the edge of starvation
And she says she's got no appet**e
And her father and her mother
And her sisters and her brothers
Couldn't see her when she walked by
You can't see her walk by
She don't eat no mashed potatoes
She don't eat no b***ered scones
Stay away from carbohydrates
You're gonna look like skin and bone

She used to be so cuddly
She used to be so fat
But oh what a sin, 'cause she's oh so thin
That she lost all the friends that she had
She looks like skin and bone (Skin and bone)

Come on, let me hear you rattle those bones!
Alright, alright

Bones, them bones, them skin and bones
Them bones, them bones, them skin and
Bones, them bones, them skin and bones
Them bones, them bones, them skin and
Bones, them bones, them skin and bones
Them bones, them bones, them skin and

If you look flabby
And you feel overweight
And you wanna lose a couple of stone
Take a crash course diet, do your daily exercises
And you'll look like skin and bone
Come on rattle them bones
Put your hands up to the ceiling
Bend your hips and touch your toes
Do your daily exercises
You're gonna look like skin and bone

Don't eat no mashed potatoes
Don't eat no b***ered scones
Don't eat no carbohydrates
You're gonna look like skin and bone (Skin and bone)

Bones, them bones, them skin and bones
Them bones, them bones, them skin and
