The Lyrics
Just for the record, I don't believe the hype myself :-)
It was forty years ago, today
Dr. Atkins threw his carbs away
He was knocking 'round for quite a while
But it's only now his book's in style
And now I direct you to
The diet you've ignored for years
Dr. Atkins' Low In Carbs Food Fad
It's Dr. Atkins' Low In Carbs Food Fad
There's bread upon your plate, oh no
It's Dr. Atkins' Low In Carbs Food Fad
Eat fat and watch the beer gut go
Dr. Atkins' Low In, Dr. Atkins' Low In
Dr. Atkins' Low In Carbs Food Fad
All the stars are on it
It's wonderful, you know
No spuds, no bread no pasta, but
We'll have some steak and onion, please
And lots and lots of cheese
Unless you want your gut to show
You should try the diet now, you know
In a week or two, you'll see it's great
'Cause by then you will be losing weight
Again, I direct you to
The diet every chip shop fears
It's Dr. Atkins' Low In Carbs Food Fad
Dr. Atkins threw his carbs away
He was knocking 'round for quite a while
But it's only now his book's in style
And now I direct you to
The diet you've ignored for years
Dr. Atkins' Low In Carbs Food Fad
It's Dr. Atkins' Low In Carbs Food Fad
There's bread upon your plate, oh no
It's Dr. Atkins' Low In Carbs Food Fad
Eat fat and watch the beer gut go
Dr. Atkins' Low In, Dr. Atkins' Low In
Dr. Atkins' Low In Carbs Food Fad
All the stars are on it
It's wonderful, you know
No spuds, no bread no pasta, but
We'll have some steak and onion, please
And lots and lots of cheese
Unless you want your gut to show
You should try the diet now, you know
In a week or two, you'll see it's great
'Cause by then you will be losing weight
Again, I direct you to
The diet every chip shop fears
It's Dr. Atkins' Low In Carbs Food Fad

That's hilarious! It fits perfectly!!! My mum's on the Atkins diet right now and she says it really really sux.
This parody's sweet ..... and MEATY.
Great job on a ridiculous scam!
Thanks for the kind words, guys :-)
This was great. It's especially funny if you listen to the combined Sgt. Pepper/With a Little Help From My Friends track. I can picture a combined parody from that one. 5-5-5 for a great laugh!
A sequel to this will soon be posted. Whether it is in the spirit of yours, you'll have to decide.
this is really funny!
The 'diet every chip shop fears' line was expecially good!
Without bread or pasta I might die, so I commend your parody, Sir Adam!
Nice work. I'm holding out on this diet until they make low-carb carbs.
The last line could have been, "HOLD THOSE BEERS!" or something like that. Very good parody!.
(ABC 2005) Very funny!! 5's
(ABC05) see above
(ABC 2005) I don't diet, and I'm in shape. Round's a shape.
(ABC-D) Carbacious. I like this one.
D: I love the Atkins diet because it's meant more yummy carbs for me! Nice job, btw.
(ABC) Still sweet ... and MEATY.
(ABC) VERY nice work, Adam - I too have used the diet - great for easy weight loss - pity about the deadly cholestorol levels - and I LOVED the title
Loved the title and a smashing parody. So THAT'S why Pauline Hanson looks so fat...
(ABC-D) Atkins must have been high when he came up with his patented diet.
:-)
(ABC) DKTOS
ABC--I am so not down with the Atkins bit...I'm with Melhi...=) This is great though!!
(ABC) My life's credo is to never take diet advice from a dead guy...;-) 555
