Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

"Those lips, those eyes"

"That food, well, there ain't
Nothin' like a spread
To get ya in the mood"

"Wilbur, can't you feel the
burning flame of hot desire
You're gonna need more
Than some seltzer
To put out this fire"

"I'm wailing, look out old Baltimore"

"I'm selling something you
Can't purchase
At a ten cent store"

"Oh Wilbur, I feel like a princess,
Come on take me to the ball"

"I bet you're tired of heavy lifting
Get your hands on something small"

"Because I'm a big"

"Blond"

"And beautiful
It's time to face the facts
It's irrefutable"

"Why waste one more minute"

"Now I feel brand spankin' new"

"Hey Wilbur, take a look, it's all for"

"You?"





"You"

Bring on that pecan pie!
Pour some sugar
On it sugar
Don't be shy.

Scoop me up
A mess of that
Chocolate swirl.
Don't be stingy
I'm a growing girl

I offer
Big love
With no apology.
How can I deny the world
The most of me?

I am not afraid to throw my weight around
Pound by pound by pound

Because I'm
Big, blond & beautiful
Face the fact
It's simply irrefutable!
No one wants a meal
That only offers the least
When girl, we're serving up
The whole damn feast

Slice me off a piece of that
hog head cheese!
Take a look inside
My book of recipes
Now don't you sniff around
For something fluffy and light.
We need a man who
Bring a man sized appetite!

I use a
Pinch of sugar
And a dash of spice!
I'll let you lick the spoon
Because it tastes so nice!

We'll keep in the oven
Till it's good and hot
Keep on stirring
Till you hit the spot!

Because I'm
Big, blond, & beautiful
There is nothing 'bout us
that's unsuitable

Why sit in the bleachers
Timid and afraid
When Edna
You look like the whole parade

They say that white has might
And thin is in
Well, that's just bull
'Cause ladies big is back
And as for black
It's beautiful!

All shapes and sizes
Follow me!
Who wants a twig
When you can climb a whole tree?

Yeah, Yeah
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

Groovy baby Groovy!
