You Cant Hit Short Men
tall men tend to stand and watch the short man shouting out
making up for that foot missing with his loudly mouth
nobody stands up to them they know they’ll knock ‘em out
it’s embarrassing to be the tall man knocking short men out
though their loud they’re not a threat when acting hilariously upset
nobody says can you shut up for a minute please
ranting on like your period has just begun to bleed,
there’s no honour stopping little men so little men go free,
you could easily pick them up and you could throw them out to sea,
but you wouldn’t get rewarded just labelled a bully,
little men get lairy go unchallenged think they’re scary,
when really they’re avoided
no one wants to beat up fairies
I could go and hit him and he'd land sometime next week,
but that wouldn't be fair on him when he's already a little freak.
