Short Arms, Short Legs Song Lyrics

Short Arms, Short Legs by Psycho Delia

[Verse 1:] However you try to disguise
The limit of your physical size
And whenever you lie to buy height
With high heels, or pompadours, single colored lines
Oh you’d even stretch your arm extension
Lots of bracelets, all attempts to lengthen
You’d even stretch your arm extension
[Pre-chorus:] ‘Cause he said that you’d never be tall
‘Cause you’ve got, you’ve got, you’ve got
[Chorus:] You’ve got short arms, and short legs
You’ve got your big head
A body like a child’s dolly
[Verse 2:] Whenever you try to blindside
The limit of your physical size
However you lie to buy height
Tight clothes and tiptoes, wardrobe all in black
Oh you’d even stretch your leg enhancement
Upon built-up platforms, all attempts to heighten
You’d even stretch your leg enhancement
[Pre-chorus:] ‘Cause he said that you’d never be tall
‘Cause you’ve got, you’ve got, you’ve got
[Chorus:] You’ve got short arms, and short legs
You’ve got your big head
With your little body like a child’s dolly
(4x)
Dolly
[Bridge:] First time I saw you I thought you were tall
But you were sitting at the bar on a stool
Didn’t clock you’d got a really long torso,
Six inch heels, and a twelve inch quiff
Then you took me in your arms to embrace me
To embrace me
And you dropped a foot
Short arms, short legs
You’ve got, you’ve got
Short arms, short legs,
You’ve got, you’ve got
A big head
(4x)
You’ve got a big head
Your body’s like a child’s dolly
[Chorus:] You’ve got short arms, and short legs
You’ve got your big head
A body like a child’s dolly
Short arms, short legs
You’ve got your big head
A body like a child’s
(7x)
Dolly
(3x)
You’ve got your big, big head
