The Reviews about Short People (page 13/ 16)
------ performed by Randy Newman


short-minded people | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/3/07

this song has nothing to do with the
hight of a person!
what the meaning of " short people" is
in this song is:
the bourgeois people with short minds
and less spirit
exactly these people , who make
our world an enemy for everybody:
everybody has enimies: if you want it or not,
cause of those "short-minded people ""



loved it from the first time I heard it | Reviewer: Anonymous | 4/24/07

I love humor in all it's forms. It takes a brilliant mind to concieve lyrics as halarious as these. Short,tall, it doesn't matter.

While we're on the offensive (some of you think) lyrics, how about the classic, "I don't want to bump no more with no big, fat woman" ? Anyone remember that one? Anyone admit dancing to it? I'm proud to say I did!

Love "Short People"! I'm going to send it to all my short friends.



amazing | Reviewer: Anonymous | 4/10/07

i loved this song immediately. okay so it helps that i'm a very tall girl (6'0), but seriously i think that it is amazing portrayal of the stupidity and ignorance behind prejudices. great song.. of course appreciating it requires looking at it beyond face value.



calm down people!! | Reviewer: lia | 4/8/07

i honostly think that if u have a problem with this song..then u have a problem. get over it. its just a song. nobody said u had to listen to it.



Short People Lyrics | Reviewer: Anonymous | 4/9/07

I think this is one of the best songs I have ever heard. I find it amusing. Randy is by no means picking on little people. God forbid someone do a song like this and replace the word "short" with "black". Jesse J. and Al S. would every news channel jammed talking about it.



SHORT ARSE!!! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/24/07

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 | 2/24/07

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 | 2/14/07

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 | 2/15/07

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 | 2/15/07

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}
