THE
CHRONIC PHONICS
OF
FAT CHANTS
Fat Chants is a musical artist
He lives with his cat Toon
He eats the plants
He sings and chants
In a booth in his bedroom
He screams into a big fat mic
The neighbors do not hear
He wears a hat
He plays a Strat
Thru the tubed amplifiears
The feedback’s loud ‘n plenty
The neighbors don’t complain
He’s made music with many
who drop but not their names
Fat Chants was a
public-access TV show
it aired from 1996 to 2004
Saturdays at 12: midnight
on channel 69
in New York City

The Fat Chants crew would
slam Amsterdam coffeeshops
harass hellish store stewards
bounce around Brooklyn
for baking ingredients
while wearing wild wigs
and wizardly lizard masks
then hurry home
to school cool kids
on how to
bake and bless the best
most chakra-lit chocolate
with emphatic fat-splattering
fistfuls of feedback and fun

Fat Chants plays a
hollow-bodied Stratocaster®
with Alembic™ pickups
through a Cry-Baby® wah pedal
a Boss OC-2 sub-octave pedal
and a Mesa-Boogie® Mark IV amp

the choir of cowardly
cackling Canadian fat folks
using our name,
and they’re not the real
Fat Chants.
yet we make XXL t-shirts
just in case.
