Lyrics

[Intro]
| A | F#m7 | B7 | E7sus4 |
| A | F#m7 | B7 | E7sus4 |

[Verse 1]
A                F#m7
 Short people got    no reason
B7                E7sus4
  Short people got      no reason
A                F#m7
 Short people got    no reason
To live
B7

[Pre-Chorus]
E7sus4        A
      They got little hands
A7/G
    Little eyes
D/F#
    They walk around
        F7
Tellin' great big lies
        A
They got little noses
    A7/G
And tiny little teeth
         D/F#
They wear    platform shoes
         F7
On their nasty little feet

[Chorus]
       A      F#m7    B7    E7sus4
Well, I don't want no short people
A      F#m7         B7   E7sus4
 Don't want no short  people
A      F#m7    B7    E7sus4
 Don't want no short people
       A
'Round here

[Interlude]
                  | F#m7 |
| B7 | E7sus4 |

[Bridge]
Dmaj7                     C#m7
     Short people are just    the same
   Bm7
As you and I
D/E                   Dmaj7
   Uh, a fool such as I    
            C#m7
All men are brothers
             Bm7
Until the day   they die
D/E                      A
   It's a wonderful world

[Verse 2]
                F#m7
Short people got    nobody
B7                E7sus4
  Short people got      nobody
A                F#m7
 Short people got    nobody
       B7
To love

[Pre-Chorus]
E7sus4        A
      They got little baby legs
     A7/G
They stand so low
          D/F#
You got to    pick 'em up
        F7
Just to say hello
        A
They got little cars
              A7/G
That got beep,    beep, beep
        D/F#
They got    little voices
      F7
Goin' peep, peep, peep
        A
They got grubby little fingers
    A7/G
And dirty little minds
D/F#                      F7
    They're gonna get you every time

[Chorus]
       A      F#m7    B7    E7sus4
Well, I don't want no short people
A      F#m7         B7   E7sus4
 Don't want no short  people
A      F#m7    B7    E7sus4
 Don't want no short people
       A
'Round here
