Just One More Bite

My heart is racing There’s sweat upon my brow I knew this day was coming There’s no escaping now I have to face what’s waiting I have to see this through Take a breath and pull myself together There’s only one thing left to do

Deep breath Steady now This is gonna kill me…

There’s too much barbecue on the table That pizza’s twice my size I said I couldn’t eat another thing Then the ice cream caught my eye My stomach says it’s over My mouth says we’re alright I’m sweating, I’m crying But just one more bite

Just one chip, then one more handful I’ll put the bag away That crispy fried goodness Has other plans today That little piece doesn’t count I barely touched the cake I’m only straightening the edges For everybody else’s sake

There’s always room for dessert It just fills in the cracks I didn’t come this far tonight To send the chocolate back

There’s too much barbecue on the table Someone’s bringing out the fries I said I couldn’t eat another thing I didn’t say I wouldn’t try My stomach says it’s over My mouth says we’re alright I’m sweating, I’m crying But just one more bite

Never again.

You gonna finish that?
