Well, twirl my turban, man alive!
Here comes Mister Five by Five
He's one of those big fat bouncing boys
Solid avoirdupois!

Mister Five by Five
He's five feet tall and he's five feet wide
He don't measure no more from head to toe
Than he do from side to side

Mister Five by Five
Got fifty chins and a line of jive
He's a mellow old cat, a real hep fat
He's Mister Five by Five

(This song was a hit for Ella May Morse and later Harry James in 1942, and was apparently inspired by Jimmy Rushing, a featured vocalist in Count Basie's orchestra.)

Wisdom from Homer.

#1.
Marge: Well, I think we should spend the money on something that the whole town can be proud of.

Homer: Like a giant billboard that says, "No fat chicks"?

#2.
Lisa:
If you wish to be our sitter,
Please be sweet and never bitter,
Help us with math and book reports.

Bart:
Might I add: "Eat my shorts".

Lisa:
Bart!

Bart:
Just cuttin' through the treacle.

Lisa:
If Maggie's fussy, don't avoid her.

Bart:
Let me get away with moider.

Lisa:
Teach us songs and magic tricks.

Homer:
Might I add: no fat chicks

Land's End and some other catalogues have some fat models and I simply want to report that anything I see on one of those hefty girls I lose interest in buying. It may be real; it ain't sales.

"Don't want to be a fat man, people would think that I was just good fun . . . .

Roll us both down the mountain, and watch the fat man win."

To quote an old public statement, "I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy."

Cuz there’s a fatman in the bathtub
With the blues
I hear ya moan, I hear ya moan
I hear ya moan
