The Reviews about Short People (page 8/ 11)
------ performed by Randy Newman


SHORT ARSE!!! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/24/2007
    These lyrices were obviously written by a "short person" who really needs to get a life and just goes to prove the true lyrics to the song are 100% correct!!



    THE REAL SHORT PEOPLE LYRICS (ALOT FUNNIER FROM DOWN HERE) | Reviewer: Dave "THE MIDGET" Morgan | 2/24/2007

    are you kidding me. i own the "8 track" and if you want the true lyrics go to www.guntheranderson.com/v/data/shortpeo.htm as a short person i am appaulled that someone changed the lyrics to a hilarious piece of art... reminds me of Sam Kinneson's saturday night live appearance when he told the Reagan administration and all the "JUST SAY NO" morons to "GIVE US BACK OUR POT" and when the rerun came up 6 weeks later it was miraculously editted out... no profanity was involved but his art was censored by a group that was running weapons & drugs to/from our dear friends the iranians and contras. the last time lyrics were so blatantly altered the children spoke german, wore armbands, and turned their parents into the authorities for extermination... i hope all your readers go to the real lyics website and laugh at the real funny song lyrics they read and not some politically correct garbage to appease a fellow short person with an even shorter sense of humor...



    STUPID | Reviewer: Violet the Tiny | 2/14/2007

    What the hell? You ruined the song! It was a satire! Do you HAVE NO BRAIN? God. Some people.



    Funny song about a nasty man | Reviewer: Tony | 2/15/2007

    Keep in mind that it is supposed to be insulting. It was written for a movie producer (a short one) who screwed Newman. As an effort to publicly insult and offend a particular person over a particular incident, it is marvelous!



    One reason for missing the point is missing the lyrics.. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/15/2007

    Here are some alternate lyrics...I haven't seen the album, but my recollection (of many years past) is that the lyrics below are more in line with the original recording. I could be wrong...but I do distincly remember the peep peep peep part. Now how does this song hold up?

    Short people got no reason (3X)
    To live

    / A - F#m - / B7 - E7sus4 - / :

    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

    {Refrain}
    Well, I don't want no short people
    Don't want no short people
    Don't want no short people
    'Round here

    / A F#m B7 E7sus4 / / / /

    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

    / Dmaj7 - A - Bm7 - / D - / :

    Short people got nobody (3X)
    To love

    They got little baby legs, they 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

    {Refrain}

    Hahaha | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/13/2006

    Reminds me of my sister-in-law who I can't stand!!!



    The World of Randy | Reviewer: Obie | 10/11/2006

    In the world of songwriting, you come upon biographical songs and roleplay. This song, is a stark depiction of the world around us. It has little to do with his personal prejudices. It is a song employing the best roleplay I have seen.



    Short People Got No Reason | Reviewer: chas | 8/8/2006

    The song was meant to be ironical, case closed. but in the attack of Randy Newman as a money hungry hollywood type...huh? The major of his songs are commentaries on american ideals gone wrong. He questions or culture & government. Look into it. Hes simply a great song writer.



    JUST FOR THE RECORD | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/18/2006

    RANDY NEWMAN IS SHORT. HE STANDS ABOUT 5' TALL. GET OVER IT. (or under it)
