On the Brightside
I met a man of two feet tallThis man was quite ambitiousIn a world that is so vicious to us allI said, "Hi," as he repliedHe said, "Listen to these wordsThat I have lived by my whole life
"You're only as tall as your heart will let you beAnd you're only as small as the world will make you seemWhen the going gets rough and you feel like you may fallJust look on the brightside - you're roughly six feet tall"
I met a man of 12 feet tallHe towered like a giantIn a world that was defiant of his heightI said, "Hi," as he repliedHe said, "Listen to these wordsThat I have dreaded my whole life
"You're only as tall as your heart will let you beAnd you're only as small as the world will make you seemWhen the going gets rough and you feel like you may fallJust look on the brightside - you're roughly six feet tall."
I am a man of six feet tallJust looking for some answersIn a world that answers none of them at allI'll say, "Hi," but not replyTo the letters that you writeBecause I found some peace of mind
Cause I'm only as tall as my heart will let me beAnd I'm only as small as the world will make me seemWhen the going gets rough and I feel like I may fallI'll look on the brightside - I'm roughly six feet tall.
