How will I ever lose this weight
from Christmas Day, from Christmas Day?
How will I ever lose this weight
from Christmas Day in the morning?

I’ll watch my portions and walk the dog
since Christmas Day, since Christmas Day.

How long will it take to lose this weight
from Christmas Day, from Christmas Day?

Love,

Ray
