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!
