manic street preachers - 4st 7lb (live) lyrics

days since i last p-ssed, cheeks sunken and despaired
so gorgeous, sunk to six stone, lose my only remaining home
see my third rib appear, a week later all my flesh disappears
stretching taut, cling-film on bone, i’m getting better

karen says i’ve reached my target weight
kate and emma and kristin know it’s fake
problem is diet’s not a big enough word
i wanna be so skinny that i rot from view
i want to walk in the snow
and not leave a footprint
i want to walk in the snow
and not soil its purity

stomach collapsed at five, lift up my skirt my s-x is gone
naked and lovely and 5st. 2, may i bud and never flower
my vision’s getting blurred but i can see my ribs and i feel fine
my hands are trembling stalks and i can feel my br–sts are sinking

mother tries to choke me with roast beef
and sits savouring her sole ryvita
“that’s the way you’re built”, my father said
but i can change, my cocoon shedding
i want to walk in the snow
and not leave a footprint
i want to walk in the snow
and not soil its purity

kate and kristin and kit-kat
all things i like looking at
too weak to fuss, too weak to die
choice is skeletal in everybody’s life
i choose, my choice, i starve to frenzy
hunger soon p-sses and sickness soon tires
legs bend, stockinged, i am twiggy
and i don’t mind the horror that surrounds me
self-worth scatters, self-esteem’s a bore
i long since moved to a higher plateau
this discipline’s so rare so please applaud
just look at the fat sc-m who pamper me so
yeh 4st. 7, an epilogue of youth
such beautiful dignity in self-abuse
i’ve finally come to understand life
through staring blankly at my navel
