Ratman, the Weightwatcher

Lyrics

Ratman must lose his dick
Ratman, the weightwatcher
Dick watcher
Ratman eats two dinners
Ratman the overeater
Dick getter
Ratman's cousin Richard
Ratman, Dick and her
Dick and her
Richard is Ratman's dick
Richard is the Fatman
Great lover
Ratman's dick is Richard
Ratman's the dick watcher
Weightwatcher
Ratman's dick is his fat
Ratman has a lover
Under cover
Ratman knows she likes Dick
Dick is no weightwatcher
Overeaten
Ratman's the weightwatcher
Ratman must lose his Dick
Dick watcher
