The Lyrics

A den means a finished basement or family room.
This tall man, he's 6'1"
He bumped his head on the sun
With a bump bump bang smack
Can't fit in a car
This tall man can't drive real far!

This tall man, he's 6'2"
He bumped his head on the new
chandelier that was hung
On the ceiling high
Watch the little light bulbs fly!

This tall man, he's 6'3"
He bumped his head on a tree
With a bump bump bang smack
Knock the branches down
This tall man won't fit in town!

This tall man, he's 6'4"
He bumped his head on a door
With a bump bump bang smack
Gonna leave a mark
He can't ride at the theme park!

This tall man, he's 6'5"
He bumped his head on a div-
ing board while walking
Went around the pool
Being that tall isn't cool!

This tall man, he's 6'6"
He bumped his head on some bricks
From the chimney high up
Crashing to the ground
Look at all the bricks I found!

This tall man, he's 6'7"
He bumped his head at 7-11
On the doorway leaving
And he bought some drinks
Being too tall really stinks!

This tall man, he's 6'8"
He bumped his head on a date
With a too tall woman
She bumped her head too
Like a giraffe at the zoo!

This tall man, he's 6'9"
He bumped his head on a pine
Tree in his backyard
Pinecones falling down
Look at them all on the ground!

This tall man, he's 6'10"
He bumped his head on the den
Ceiling in the basement
And he broke a light
It was not made for his height!

Hilarious! Reminds me of classic 90's commercial with Shaq when he bumps his head on the ceiling and breaks it, due to the fact that he's tall! Those tall guys you were describing must come from the land of the giants! Or Paul Bunyan's cousins! This parody had grown about 55'5".

Clever concept on an old kids' song. 555, and ya missed yer plug at the group tribute on Monday.

Very good...except to give it a pay-off finish...I might have suggested using something like this for the last three lines...."Playing for the Lakers, ..now, he signed last night.. Made a big plus of his height "

555 Not only was this hysterical, but I found it doubly-funny because I AM 6'3"! No joke.
