Bigger Isn't Better

Lyrics

I'm General Thumb just come to town
 A Yankee Doodle Dandy
 I've ate your scrap and washed it down
 With just a nip of brandy
 The mayor made me presents rare
 The ladies didn't salute me
 First rate I am they all declare
 And all my poses suit me
 My success should open up your eyes
 Don't judge nothing just by shape or size
 Bigger isn't better
 Taller isn't braver
 Stronger isn't always wise
 Smaller isn't necessarily the lesser
 Guts can come in any size
 Lady luck can favor
 Just a little shaver
 Over one who's six foot three
 Brains in any tussle
 Mops the floor with muscle
 Bet your life I'm glad I'm me
 ♪
 Bigger isn't keener
 Larger isn't bolder
 Higher might be low inside
 When you need to lean upon a friendly shoulder
 Narrow's just as good as wide
 See the mighty lion sittin' there and crying bitten by a tiny flea
 Mammoth was colossal
 What's he now? A fossil!
 Bet your life I'm glad I'm me
 What strong in bulk may lag along
 In brains and heart
 That handsome hulk might be a Lilliputian medley
 Proven consequently
 Though he shows his shoulders twice as big as boulders
 If the brain's a tiny pea
 When you're in a pickle
 He ain't worth a nickel
 Bet your life I'm glad I'm
 Bet your life I'm glad I'm me
 ♪
 Ladies and Gentlemen, together for the first time
 Mr. P.T. Barnum's two star attractions
 General Tom Thumb and Jumbo!
 ♪
 The dinosaur's no more
 The dear old dodo's dead
 But right there on that floor
 Some ants will still be treadin' after Armageddon
 Measuring a hero, weight is less than zero
 Height ain't worth a hoot in hell
 Show me any hunk of man can match the spunk of
 Tiny Tim or Little Nell
 Giants look so awesome folks are scared to cross 'em
 Nonetheless I guarantee
 Small as Yankee Doodle
 If he's in the mood'll
 Beat the whole caboodle
 Using just his noodle
 Bet your life I'm glad I'm me!
