I'm a seven-inch With a pair of six guns. get you ten, I betcha never one. Well I'm a seven inch How do you be? And I'm to people gawking and a-staring at me But I wasn't so gol-darned wee Let me you my story, You can for free. For long years, Now that's a year for every I stand I've small and lonely down the byways of this giant land Like a country Lilliputian too afraid to stop I'm at the bottom of the food chain I once was at the top. I on foot, my horse had done abandoned me And town I come to's like a terrible dream The other cowboys mocked me and tobacco like meteors Watching me 'em and laughing at my small squeaky scream I to a saloon to get a drink They wouldn't me They stuffed me in a glass and slid me up and the bar And all the women gathered round and had their way with me They sang a both cold and mean 'Cause how women are, sang, "A man can pan for gold and strike it rich and be a Or the rodeo and be the best one at it anywhere. Drive a new car, be a movie star Size is all that counts, and you are." And I'm a seven-inch With a tiny pair of six get you ten I bet you seen one (Yodeling) Now as you can imagine, I'd grown bitter (Although that's the only way in I had grown) And in that seventh year I finally my transgressor, The man who had shrunk me, the fiend I'd ever known. The mad Professor Mentley was his and I drew near I hopped his shoulder and I grabbed him by the ear I held my little up and I told 'im, "Look a-here! You me this way, it's time you pay, you gol-darned queer!" And the said, "Wait! Wait! Now you know me, and I you And you know that strange experiments are just I do It's like a pastime and more like a job Why if I didn't do it, I'd be an slob Now I know that suffice if I'm to set you at ease But I'm thinking as fast as I can for a man who's on his knees And just this passing I had a thought, here's what I thunk, I thought, would you be today if you hadn't've shrunk?' Just another nameless cowboy, a mediocre Riding in the sun, skin burnt the color of a by the ladies, ridiculed by other men, Nothing to set you apart nor would there ever have Then I came along, yes ME, Mentley! I you a gift! (though you weren't grateful evidently) I plucked you from your average status, I you unique You're a cowboy, not a six foot freak. From every corner of the globe folks will come to you Nations will bow and throw their riches you You'll be diminutive in stature, but a titan Because I, true friend, chose to stand by your side." Now I cogitated on the words Professor Mentley And I wondered if perhaps he only 'em 'cause he was scared My guns were heavy in my hands, my heart was low When suddenly some old advice to me soft and slow: Well my pop told me it don't matter a fella goes You can sail through icy straights and archipelagoes. Travel to the moon, orbit every don't really count and there you are. And I'm a cowboy (seven inches tall) With a tiny pair of six guns (That's damn small) Five'll get you ten (For all you men) You'll never see one (yeah!) I guess Professor Mentley had a point although I shot him There's never been a gentleman like me and is safe to say Well, I've thought real long and hard, so my brain is numb Now I say Hollywood (Hollywood!), (Hollywood!) here I come!
