Lyrics Bigger Isn't Better - Leonard John Crofoot

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!
