Dan Bern - Short lyrics

You're still a baby, you're the baby sort Not so long ago, you came thru the baby port But every now and then we think you're all grown up And that you're really really really really short Shorter than a bread box, shorter than the stairs Shorter than the milk crate, shorter than most chairs If we built you a life-sized fort It'd be really really really really short You're still a baby, you're the baby sort That's my information, that's my report But sometimes we forget, think you're all grown up And that you're really really really really short Whistle Shorter than a bread box, shorter than the stairs Shorter than the milk crate, shorter than most chairs If we built you a life-sized fort It'd be really really really really short You're still a baby, you're the baby sort You wouldn't be much good on the basketball court But sometimes we forget, think you're all grown up And that you're really really really really short Really really really really short Really really really really short
