The lyric is:

Quote:Lord, we got folks in the street, ain't got nothin' to eat
And the obese milkin' welfare

Well, God, if you're 5-foot-3 and you're 300 pounds
Taxes ought not to pay for your bags of fudge rounds

Basically, the left would object to victim blaming people on welfare/govenment assistance programs for being overweight when the problem, in their (our) viewpoint, is systemic. There are plenty of reports about how food stamps/SNAP are used on less healthy foods because unhealthy foods are cheaper on a calorie to dollar basis than healthy things like fruits and vegetables (especially fresh fruit and vegetables).

Sorry for the vague reference.
