Miss Platnum: Give Me the Food

Give Me the Food was the first I heard of plus size Romanian singer, Miss Platnum. I fell in love watching her poke fun at the food industry, societal standards, and family pressure. Watch the video to see Miss Platnum in action then play it again and sing along with the lyrics below the video.

Give Me the Food Song Lyrics

The cover of Miss Platnum's hit single Give Me the Food.You know, people always say:
“Women should be thin,
They should be on diet”
But I don’t care,
I just enjoy eating
I like my coffee with a lot of cream,
I like to eat late at night
I like scrambled eggs after a sweet dream,
I like potatoes, deep fried,
I like some sugar in my lemonade,
I like hot chicken wings, I said
I like them cheesecakes
but, home made.
I like a long lasting…
lunch break.
Give me the food, give me the food
OPA!
Give me no fruits if you love me, HEY!
Give me the food, give me the food
HAIDE!
Give me no fruits if you love me.
Some girls may think:
“This chick’s is a little big”.
Slim girls don’t understand
But I don’t care.
Some guys may say:
“It’s a curve that’s deeper”.
They like the tight pants that I wear.
I am Romanian, I love to eat,
It’s in my genes, I can’t control.
Look to my curvations cause
Models can’t compete
“I am a woman, no skinny doll”
Give me the food, give me the food
OPA!
Give me no fruits if you love me, hey!
Give me the food, give me the food
HAIDE!
Give me no fruits if you love me.
Give me the food, give me the food
OPA!
Give me no fruits if you love me, HEY!
Give me the food, give me the food
HAIDE!
Give me no fruits if you love me.
You know, people say:
“Women should only eat yogurt…
And strawberries”
They say a lot of things but you know
I don’t care what people say
About my weight.
So if you want to take me out
For a date, make sure there is
Enough food on my plate
And maybe I let you
Get a taste of my cake!
Ha!
Give me the food, give me the food
OPA!
Give me no fruits if you love me, hey!
Give me the food, give me the food
HAIDE!
Give me no fruits if you love me.
Give me the food, I said give me the food
OPA!
Give me no fruits if you love me, hey!
Give me the food, I said give me the food
HAIDE!
Give me no fruits if you love me.
