Short people got
No reason to live
Don't want no short people 'round me.

With his tail cut short and his ears cut long
Oh where, oh where can he be

"Oh where, oh where, has my little dog gone"

In short, there's simply not
A more congenial spot
For happy ever aftering
Than here in Camelot!

Find a gentleman who is shy or bold
or short, or tall
or young, or old
as long as the guy's
a millionaire...

. . . another short was found.
When asked what for, came this reply:
"You were docked for the time
You were up in the sky."
So drill ye tarriers, drill.

--A folksong about railroad workers. The "short" was a discrepancy in the weekly paycheck. The worker in question had been too close to dynamite, and had been hurled into the air during the explosion.
