Lyrics for Why Am I So Short?

You may laugh at me Say I don't deserve All the things I've had Sad... I've got a drum kit and some sticks So when I'm drunk or in a fit I find it easy to express myself I hit the drums so hard I break all my heads And then I end the day in one of my beds I'm nearly 5 ft. 7 tall I like to smoke and drink and ball I've got a yellow suit that's made by Pam And every day I like an egg and some tea But best of all I like to talk about me! You may laugh at me Say I don't deserve All the things I've had Sad...
