Jonathan Coulton
Just As Long As Me
[Verse 1]
It's a sad and awful story and the shorter folks don't care
I'm a man who's simply way to big to love
Picture her a tiny thing with tiny ribbons in her hair
Picture me a monster towering above

[Chorus]
I don't care what color hair is growing on her head
She doesn't have to be a sight to see
It don't matter if she's fat or if she's good in bed
Just as long as she is just as long as me

[Verse 2]
Took an ad out in the paper with my picture and some prose
It said tall and lonely lover seeking same
Combed my hair and got a shave and bought a long stemmed thornless rose
When the picture ran my head was out of frame

[Chorus]
I don't care what color hair is growing on her head
She doesn't have to be a sight to see
It don't matter if she's fat or if she's good in bed
Just as long as she is just as long as me

[Verse 3]
Every night I have a dream I'm on a mountain in the sky
And the air gets ever thinner as I climb
Then I see the gates of heaven, someone there has caught my eye
She is very tall and finally she is mine
[Chorus]
I don't care what color hair is growing on her head
She doesn't have to be a sight to see
It don't matter if she's fat or if she's good in bed
Just as long as she is just as long as me
