if I were taller life would be so great
if I were taller I'd appreciate
the way that I could see over the crowd and walk at a faster rate
if I were taller

if I were taller life would be so grand
if I were taller I'd have bigger hands
I'd trade my ukulele for a guitar and play in a rock band
if I were taller

I'd be as tall as a tree in the forest
survey my kingdom like a queen among men
towering above like a brontosaurus
I'd be an amazonian

if I were taller that would be so nice
if I could be taller I'd pay any price
I'd look into my cabinet and be able to reach every spice
if I were taller

if I were taller that would be so cool
if I were taller I'd never need a stool
no more treading water on the shallow end of the pool
if I were taller

I'd be as tall as a churchtower steeple
but no one else would point and laugh
I couldn't help intimidating people
like a mafia giraffe

if I were taller I wouldn't have a care
if I were taller I'd skip every other stair
I'd plant my feet firmly on the ground while I'm sitting in a chair
if I were taller

if I were taller I'd sometimes hit my head
if I were taller I'd need a longer bed
and if I'd need more legroom on an airplane, I still mean what I said
I wish I were taller

wish I were taller
ooh
wish I were taller
ooh
like maybe five foot ten
six foot two
hell I'd be six six it'd be better than five foot nothing
little weird but I'd take it
ooh
