Heart Attack Waitin’ to Happen
U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention say that half of the U.S. will be obese by 2030 if current trends continue.* In fact Mississippi has the highest percentage of obese adults at 34%. The lowest is Colorado with 21%. Canada is not far behind. The number of overweight children has tripled since 1976. Overweight preteens and adolescents are more likely to become obese adults and are prone to an increased rate of serious health risks later in life, as Diabetes or a Heart Attack.
I would encourage everyone to get the help they need, either from a health professional or support group before it’s too late!

HEART ATTACK WAITIN’ TO HAPPEN

I saw them first across the room. The smell began to make me swoon.
It didn’t take long then to decide, A hot French fry would satisfy.
Without a care I walked that way, What a great way to start my day!
One little bite and I was hooked. I ate the whole plate without a second look.
I’m a HEART ATTACK WAITIN’, HEART ATTACK WAITIN’ TO HAPPEN.
I love fried foods and loads of pie, The calories, they multiply.
I should think more about it, And soon I’ll get right to it.
‘Cuz I’m a HEART ATTACK WAITIN’ TO HAPPEN
I’ve tried to diet, I won’t deny, Still my weight stays sky-high,
Angioplasty could be mine, with the way I dine
I set my goals with a darn good plan, but soon I find them much too grand.
It didn’t take long then I started to sing, Before my eyes, it’s an onion ring!
I’m a HEART ATTACK WAITIN’, HEART ATTACK WAITIN’ TO HAPPEN.
My doctor gives me quite the eye, the sugar in my bloods climbin’ sky high.
I guess I should be worried sick, My waist-line’s lookin’ mighty thick
‘Cuz I’m a HEART ATTACK WAITIN’ TO HAPPEN
INSTRUMENTAL
Fruits and nuts and exercise, All the things that I despise,
Oh I’m a HEART ATTACK
I’m a HEART ATTACK WAITIN’, HEART ATTACK WAITIN’ TO HAPPEN.
I love my gravy and my pie, the carbohydrates multiply.
A triple bacon burger tastes so great, Much more than that fish I ate!
Oh I’m a HEART ATTACK WAITIN’ TO HAPPEN
So when a cold one sounds just right, I’m just gonna say to, “Make it light!”
Oh I’m a HEART ATTACK WAITIN’ TO HAPPEN
WAITIN’ TO HAPPEN!
