I wrote the biggest part of this 30 years ago, about a girl in the pub I frequented; I would have asked her out but I heard some guys making unkind remarks about her weight and I just didn't have the bottle after that... shame on me, for she was lovely. It's a commentary on how our choices can be made for us if we are not strong-minded enough, rather than a criticism of an over-weight girl. I did a demo of it 25 years ago and re-discovered it the other day - I've re-recorded it and added the intro and a verse but that's all. Besides 4 guitar tracks, 6 backing vocals and a lead vocal, the rest is sequenced: two Chameleon drum loops, bass guitar, Fender Rhodes.
