You're washed up
So face the facts
You're lookin' like a snail stopped dead in its tracks
Winded up, you sung your last note
Your swan song's over, that's all that you wrote
Say hello to your Waterloo
Little RABBIT, you was thinkin' the race was through
But while you were complaining
The tortoise was gaining on you
Yes, it's true that...
It ain't over 'til the fat lady sings
The fight aint finished till the last bell rings
The jury's still out till the VERDICT comes in
So good luck baby
May the best DANCE win!
You think your dancing can not be matched
You been countin all your chickens before THEY WAS HATCHED
You never can predict which way the PENDULUM swings
'Cause it aint over 'til the fat lady sings
Make way, Step aside
Button up your coat, cause you're going for a ride
THE TEACHER'S PET DONE RUN OUT OF GAS
Now someone else is headed to the head of the class
You showed us every step that you know
But WHEN YOU WEREN'T LOOKING I STOPPED THE SHOW
And there's just no comparing, I'm loose when I'm raring to go
Don't you know that...
It ain't over 'til the fat lady sings
It's been GREAT FUN but it was just one of those things
IT'S THE BOTTOM OF THE NINTH I'D SAY THAT NOW
YOU'LL BEAT ALL THE TRAFFIC IF YOU JUST LEAVE NOW
WHERE'S THAT BASKET you put all you eggs?
I'm gonna scramble 'em up with these superfine legs
When I'm dancing, look around you, all you see is RINGS
And it aint over 'til the fat lady sings
Well-a Well-a Well
You got nice moves, don't get me wrong
But YOU'RE NEVER gonna be the rage, no
'Cause after a big girl sings her song
SHE'LL PUT YOU IN A TRANCE AND DANCE YOU RIGHT OFF THE STAGE
Your shiny corvette is covered in rust
I'm stepping on the gas, SO JUST EAT MY DUST
YOU CAN DREAM THAT YOU STAND HALF A CHANCE AFTER THAT
IF YOU MUST, but just remember that
It aint over 'til the fat lady sings
AS TRUMAN SAID TO DEWEY, YEAH I KNOW THAT IT STINGS
I'll bet you should be wishing that you had wings
THE WORLD IS FULL OF PAUPERS WHO ONCE WERE KINGS
So we're lookin' to the future and the hope THAT IT BRINGS
And it ain't over 'til the fat lady sings
Ohhhhh
The fat lady sings
