The Skivvies: Lauren Molina and Nick Cearley featuring Brittany Alexandra Campbell

lyrics

A weakling weighing ninety-eight pounds
Got sand in his face
 When kicked to the ground
 And soon in the gym
 With a determined chin
 The sweat from his pores
As he works for his cause
Will make him glisten
And gleam, and with massage
And just a little bit of steam
He'll be pink and quite clean
 He'll be a strong man 
But the wrong man 
He'll eat nutritious, high protein
And swallow raw eggs
 Try to build up his shoulders
 His chest, arms, and legs
 Such an effort
 If he only knew of my plan
 In just seven days 
I can make you a man 
He'll do press-ups and chin-ups
 Do the snatch, clean, and jerk
 Dynamic tension
 Sounds like awfully hard work
Such strenuous living
 I just don't understand
When in just seven days 
 I can make you a man
But a deltoid and a bicep
A hot groin and a tricep 
Makes me (Ooh!) shake
Makes me wanna take Charles Atlas by the hand   In just seven days
 I can make you a man 
 I want no dissension
 Just dynamic tension
I’m a muscle fan!
In just seven days
I can make you a man
Dig it, if you can!
In just seven days
I can make you a man
