This song is about people who are short on intelligence, patience, compassion and empathy. Short is a metaphor. I guess in that includes some of you. Everyone here is dumb | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/30/08 O.k. please listen to the song... It says, in the chorus, that they are the same as you and I and if you knew anything about Randy Newman, you'd know he was very small. It's a joke, but not about short people. It's about how dumb people are and that size doesn't matter. If you thought how silly and inaccurate this song is, then you just prove his point. He is trying to remind you how dumb it does sound. So the next time a comment says I totally agree and short people are dumb or the opposite Randy Newman is so dumb and this song should be banned, then think twice and think about your own stupidity! head versus gut | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/26/08 While I know intellectually that this song is pure satire and has a message I applaud, why does it feel like I am being hit in the gut by a brick everytime a tall person sings this "at" me? this song is stupid | Reviewer: andrea | 1/24/08 it is offensive, but whatever. he didnt like short people and sang about it. tell me thats not running out of things to sing about. its a dumb song and randy newman is a retard. thats what i think...maybe ill write a song about him. hmmm... Hah | Reviewer: Sarah | 1/24/08 I am quite short, and I think this song is funny. I agree with the person below me that pointed out that this is a satire! It's not written to insult short people. But the guy "Daniel Rollatini" is a bit dumb. Wow, not only did you just misinterprit the song, but you also served to purposely make people feel bed. Good for you. Aghast | Reviewer: Brandon | 1/22/08 I am deeply horrified at some of the reactions to this song. Mr. Newman should write a song entitled "Dumb People," and talk about how great they are. Then everyone would be happy. An excellent song | Reviewer: Daniel Rollatini | 1/17/08 I really like the sentiment behind this song, and think that Randy Newman is a really deep thinker. I'm 6'5", and the short people that I've met in my life meet the description that Newman sets forth. They do have little hands and feet, but oh my, do they do tell those great big lies. And those tiny, little voices going "beep, beep, beep", and those dirty minds waddling around on those tiny, little feet--all so true. Thanks so much Randy. Please keep the trenchant criticism coming. READ THE LYRICS WELL | Reviewer: ME | 1/16/08 people who say it sucks because short people are people too don't understand the song or didn't read it all. just listen to it fully and you'll hear that he doesn't think that short people are less then him at all. Hahahah | Reviewer: pa5cal3@hotmail.com | 1/16/08 Randy Newman is a legend. this song is hillarious. all u short people if you dont like it, grow taller. It's a joke. and dont worry we're not laughing with you, just at you. laughing at u and ur shortness like ur little hands and little eyes THIS SONG SUCKS | Reviewer: Mercedes | 1/14/08 There is no reason for anyone to pick on short people WE ARE PEOPLE TOO just because were not as tall as most people doesnt mean we cant feel anything and it hurts to be picked on and this song is WAY worst then it is when someone is picking on you for being short i get called midget from people 1-2 inches taller then me and i think its wrong so what WERE SHORT who cares we just human!!!
