| Primus – My Friend Fats Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| I think the song is about a jazz pianist named Fats Waller. He played stride piano and became famous. He weighed over 300 lbs (hence the name), and he loved to eat and drink. Since people expect that fat be generally happy and jovial, he played the part. He would wake up and have three fingers of scotch for breakfast (His 'liquid ham and eggs' as he put it). He had a booming personality, which made him fun to be around. He died at 39 from drinking. I'm not sure whether or not he did drugs though. Anyways thats my take on the song. | |
