Don't Call Me Fatso, Beanpole

Don't call me fatso, beanpole
Don't call me beanpole, fatso

If you really have to taunt
You may say that I am gaunt
Perhaps you could be persuaded
To say I'm emaciated
I'm the opposite of brawny
So you can call me scrawny

But don't call me beanpole, fatso
Don't call me fatso, beanpole

Yes it's true I fill my clothes
So you can call me adipose
If by my size you are stunned
Why don't you call me rotund?
I know it's no compliment
But you may call me corpulent

But don't call me fatso, beanpole!
Don't call me beanpole, fatso!

Pan is the Greek Word for All

Pan is the Greek word for 'all'
A panorama is a view that goes in all directions
(Pan is the Greek word for 'all')
A panacea is a cure for all life's imperfections
(Pan is the Greek word for 'all')
A panegyric is a speech of praise that all must hear
(Pan is the Greek word for 'all')
A pandemic is a widespread illness that all people fear
(Pan is the Greek word for 'all')
Once all the continents were one, it was called Pangaea (pan-JEE-uh)
(Pan is the Greek word for 'all')
A pantheist believes in all the gods from A to Z-uh
(Pan is the Greek word for 'all')
Pan is the Greek word for 'all'
