The Selecter - Not So Tall lyrics

I took a walk along a yellow street where purple faces said it all I wasn't looking for no sympathy An opportunity to make me small Then my skin began to crawl I took a bus up where the air is green And all year round the sky is blue The people all pretend that they can't see The mediocrity of what they do believing what they say is true Oh, it's such a silly dream but you're not so tall Oh, it's such a simple thing But you're not so tall Oh no, you're not so tall at all I took a stroll along a red-brick road Where baby's cheeks are shiny brown I heard the crack of an almighty load The curiosity of that fat sound brought all the children running round Oh, it's such a silly dream but you're not so tall Oh, it's such a simple thing But you're not so tall Oh no, you're not so tall at all When I think of the good vibrations All the things I like to do Then I get a strange sensation Why is everyone so cruel? Oh, you're not so tall, oh no, you're not so tall One day, some day
