Do you like 'em skinny or fat?

[Lightning Rod]

The Closer To the Bone

this is my version of a Louis Prima tune

It always brings the question to my mind about what is 'just right' in a partner.

Do you like 'em skinny or fat? and why?

"Do you like 'em skinny or fat? and why?"

"'em"..? as in "them", i presume.

i like healthy, clear-eyed 'ems.

i'm friendly with the woman who works in the coffee shop in my office. the woman in front of me in the queue ordered a stupid coffee. it isn't enough for her to order a coffee and it isn't enough for her to order one of the common place variations on a coffee, cappuccino, latte, espresso... she ordered a variation on a variation. can i have a tall single shot skinny latte please? freak! then she changed her mind, she didn't want it after all. I was waiting for a cup of tea. Margaret, the woman who works in the coffee shop asked if I wanted a free coffee. I said, "that isn't a coffee, it's a coffee flavoured milk drink." I took it though. It was free. and I enjoyed it. So, I like skinny lattes with half the normal amount of coffee in them. I would never buy one because if I want a coffee, I buy a coffee. coffee is purely utilitarian to me. I drink coffee when I need it. Tea is my preferred hot drink in the morning. or any other time of day for that matter.

now, when it comes to a steak. a nice prime piece of scottish beef...! I like 'em fat. I want it fat enough to withstand a complete scalding in the hot pan while the inside remains red and lubricated with the blood of the beast who gave me the meat.

swings and roundabouts, is what I'm saying, LR.

i'm downloading your track just now.

I'm kind of with MT here though if the "em" you mean the half of the human race unfortunate enough not to have a penis... I like "em" to look healthy.

I don't know who said this originally, "the pen is mightier than the sword." but Morrisey said, "penis, mightier than the sword"

Generally.

Skinny or fat
it matters not
it is the being beneath the skin
that makes the entire package worth the knowing.

People are too wrapped up in the physical
so long as we're neat and clean
take some care of our appearance
size is immaterial.

Now smart or stupid? That's a whole other enchilada.

And of course if they're shorter than me. That would be a bother.

I better shut up before I begin contradicting myself.

depends on what part of the 'em i be tasting upon...........
