From the recording Family Portraits (Volume 3)
A rare song about the songwriter himself...and his characteristic tendency to do EVERYTHING to the nth degree: 110%.
Lyrics
Fat Man in January
Fat Man in January
Going strong in February, yeah!
March and April struggling through
Just keep going through May and June
Aha-ha!
Hey
Let’s go!
We’ve got so
Much to see and do
Carpe deum!
Seize the day!
Like there’s no tomorrow,
Tomorrow!
Anything
Worth doing
Is worth your very best
In consequence
Everything I do
I do as if possessed
July and August, start to waiver
September, October and November
In the autumn fall off the wagon
Christmas is a complete disaster
Aha!
Yo!
Let’s go!
There’s so much
To learn and know
Carpe deum!
Seize the day!
Like today is
Your last, yeah
Your last day!
Anything
Worth doing
Is worth your very best
In consequence
Everything I do
I do 110%
Whether work
Or play
It’s all the same o me
Eat and drink, exercise and read
And socialize merrily
Anything
Worth doing
Is worth your very best
In consequence
Everything I do
I do as if possessed
