I met a man of two feet tall
This man was quite ambitious
In a world that is so vicious

To us all, I said "hi"
As he replied, he said
"Listen to these words that I have lived by my whole life."


You're only as tall
As your heart will let you be

And you're only as small
As the world will make you seem
And when the going gets rough

And you feel like you may fall
Just look on the bright side
You're roughly six feet tall


I met a man of twelve feet tall
He towered like a giant

In a world that was defiant of his height
I said "hi" as he replied, he said
"Listen to these words that I have dreaded my whole life."


You're only as tall
As your heart will let you be

And you're only as small
As the world will make you seem
And when the going gets rough

And you feel like you may fall
Just look on the bright side
You're roughly six feet tall


I am a man of six feet tall
Just looking for some answers

In a world that answers none
Of them at all
I'll say "hi"

But not reply to the letters that you write
Because I found some piece of mind


Cause I'm only as tall
As my heart will let me be
And I'm only as small

As the world will make me seem
When the going gets rough
And I feel like I may fall

I'll look on the brightside
I'm roughly six feet tall
