This is another TY song containing the wrong lyrics in a few very key points. They completely change the meaning of the song here in fact.

First verse

Es-so, es-so Pudding pie and Es-so, es-so (a newborn dying) Es-so, es-so A baby's cry I gotta do right if my body is tight, right?

There is no better way to put it It even sounds like what you guys think it is do or die and Just re read the song after you add the corrected lyric. es-so es-so feelin free If it were about eating disorder or fueling your body, why do you think she would be feeling free from that? You will never feel free from eating, anyone with an eating disorder will tell you that. Eating is actually something those people normally don't want to do. Looking at it from that point Gentlemen logically it cannot be about eating disorder. Unless of course she plans to commit suicide by "I run over my own body with my own car" However I kinda doubt it... and the end is her feeling free because she is dead. but i think the "i run over my own body" line is more about how she created the problem she is talking about in the song.

I think (at this point) I'm supposed to just be quiet and let you think what you will, but I figure I'll give it one more try:

1) The lyric is "do or die" not "a newborn dying" 2) "Running over my own body with my own car" is a metaphor for how people are literally killing themselves by overeating junk foods, but it also captures the vicious cycle of guilt that, in turn, prompts the overeating (like how some people crave sweets when they're stressed or depressed) 3) "A baby's cry", the only line in the song that makes an overt...

She even said in an interview that it was about eating disorders and the pressure to be skinny today. What's with you and wanting all her songs to be about abortion?
