lyrics

There was this girl that I knew
She could never remember my name
One time she called my Bob, one time she called me Sue
One time she even called me Wayne

So I said, Baby you can call me anything you like
Wont make me loser or winner
Baby you can call me anything you like
Just don't ever call me Late for Dinner

Stick and stones might do me harm
But your words can't pierce my hide
No name that you could call me could ever break my arm
At least as long as I've got three square meals inside

So I say, Baby you can call me anything you like
Wont make me saint or sinner
Baby you can call me anything you like
Just don't ever call me Late for Dinner

I've been called so many things it's like it's a tradition
Some of them cruel some of them kind
But as long as they don't result in my malnutrition
I must confess that I don't mind

Now it may seem to you unseemly
For a grown man to make such a big deal
But you don't ever wanna see what happens to me
In the event that I miss my main meal

Baby you can call me anything you like
As long as it don't make me any thinner
Baby you can call me anything you like
Just don't ever call me Late for Dinner
