My Back Fat

Member since 2003 · Posted 26 Jun 2003 · 8 comments

I am in love, though its friends that I lack, with 100 kilos of fat, hanging around my back. I used to be ashamed, I was always straight laced, now I just buy trousers, with a higher waist. Some think that Im a freak, Children point and they laugh, but they can't see my real shame when I give myself an accidental golden bath.

An interesting confessional. I applaud the sincerity of the sentiment. Charlie from busted is a very good looking person and I don't think a small smattering of back fat should interfere with both a succesful pop career and a healthy active life. Should the back fat subsume the front of you as well, enveloping what little visible frame you have remaining ala Rick Walla then I think you should write another poem concerning your general surfeit of blubber however at this time I believe the sentiment expressed here is both fitting and enough.

A splendid and promising beginning, sir.

This is fucking awful. And I hate busted. Especially the tall one. They should be put in a maximum security prison where they will be forced to sleep with the light on every night of their lives.

I apologise if that came out a bit strong. I've been having a bad morning.

I have been told that I bear an uncanny resemblance to Charlie from Busted and may I state unequivocally that you are a cunt.
