[Verse 1] There is no medication to cure me I've been so patient I'm sorry you had to see me this way but the frustration Killing me in the morning more than the evening more in the morning Cuz when I wake up it doesn't leave me It's not a dream when I look in the mirror my enemy isn't staring at me Though I'm stuck with his memory I guess I should just say it and stop trying to tell you... OK there's something I have to tell you...
[Hook] I was a fat guy! I was a big fat guy! I was a fat guy! It's no wonder I stayed inside!
[Verse 2] This is nothing to kick dirt on If you're thin you get your flirt on When your fat you make love with your shirt on I'm dying to hide yellow inside you can't hurt me I'm already beating myself up at 2:30 I could miss a lunch switched from Cap'n Crunch to Wheaties Being such a high risk for diabetes If the fantasy in my head could see the day I would jump around and run to my ex and say...
[Hook] I was a fat guy! I was a big fat guy! I was a fat guy! And now I'm truly alive! I was a fat guy! Why was I so ugly inside? I was a fat guy! I'm so happy I could just die!
[Spoken] Man, somebody needs to get me a Big Mac Or some Chinese food or somethin' somethin', I don't know...

Pretty straightforward song. Cage used to be fat, especially during his early years. In fact, some fans who prefer his old music refer to that point in his career as “Fat Cage.”
