Short People got no reason
Short People got no reason
Short People got no reason
To live

They got little hands
Little eyes
They walk around
Tellin' great big lies
They got little noses
And tiny little teeth
They wear platform shoes
On their nasty little feet

Well, I don't want no Short People
Don't want no Short People
Don't want no Short People
`Round here

Short People are just the same
As you and I
(A Fool Such As I)
All men are brothers
Until the day they die
(It's A Wonderful World)

Short People got nobody
Short People got nobody
Short People got nobody
To love

They got little baby legs
That stand so low
You got to pick 'em up
Just to say hello
They got little cars
That go beep, beep, beep
They got little voices
Goin' peep, peep, peep
They got grubby little fingers
And dirty little minds
They're gonna get you every time
Well, I don't want no Short People
Don't want no Short People
Don't want no Short People
'Round here

  • Had this song not been made when it was and instead made today, i dont think it would be politically correct enough for all these offended folk. Love this song and I'm a metal head. Good stuff

  • Randy Newman wasn't trying to be politically incorrect back in 1977. I was a teenager back then and everyone understood that the song was criticizing prejudice,

    Wikipedia says: "The verses and chorus are a bizarre and pointed attack on the short, with a contrasting bridge noting that 'short people are just the same as you and I.' Newman confirms that the song is about 'prejudice,' as was widely thought, but added that it was 'about a lunatic.'
