All you girls think the days are gone 
You don't have to worry, you can have your fun 
Take me, baby, for your little boy 
Three hundred pounds of heavenly joy 
This is it 
This is it 
Look what you get 
You been creeping and hiding behind his back 
'Cause you got you a man that you don't like 
Throw that Jack, baby, outta your mind 
Follow me, baby, have a real good time 
This is it 
This is it 
Look what you get 
Hoy! Hoy! I'm the boy 
Three hundred pounds of heavenly joy 
I'm so glad that you understand 
Three hundred pounds of muscle and man 
This is it 
This is it 
Look what you get 
If the men's all mad then the women's glad 
If the little kids' happy then the old folk's mad 
I'm so glad that you understand 
Three hundred pounds of muscle and man 
This is it 
This is it 
Look what you get
