Original[]
Hyp
- When you're big
You can push all the little ones around
They're lookin' up while you are looking down
You can snap a tree in two like it was just a twig
Things are better when you're big
Hyp, Mutt, & Nod
- When you're big
Hyp
- You can do anything you want to do
Mutt
- Wah-oh
Hyp
- All the rules that grownups make, they don't apply to you
Mutt & Nod
- Not to you
Hyp
- You can splash in all the puddles
gulp, slurp, and swig
Mutt and Nod
- Oh, wah
Hyp
- The world is wetter when you're big
Mutt & Nod
- Glug, glug, glug
Hyp
- You can snort
Mutt & Nod
- You can snort
Hyp
- You can growl
Mutt & Nod
- You can growl
Hyp
- You can stomp
Mutt & Nod
- You can stomp
Hyp
- You can howl
Mutt & Nod
- You can howl
Hyp
- You can bonk someone smaller on the head
Mutt & Nod
- On the head
Hyp
- (Mutt & Nod scat whilst Hyp sings)
- You can take what you want
Play all day in the swamp
And you never ever have to go to bed
Hyp, Mutt, & Nod
- When you're big
Hyp
- You can step on little people's toes
Mutt & Nod
- Oh wah
Hyp
- Munch on their lunch
Nod
- Lunch
Hyp
- And bop them in the nose
Mutt & Nod
- Oh, yeah
Hyp
- Threehorns, longnecks, and duck feet, too
Mutt & Nod
- Duck feet, too
Hyp
- They all have to do anything you want them to
Mutt & Nod
- You want them to
Hyp
- And if they don't, you can plop them--
Hyp, Mutt & Nod
- --in the goo!
Hyp
- Don't you forget
Mutt
- (growls at littlefoot)
Hyp
- What you want, you get
Nod
- (growls at Cera)
Hyp
- Things are better when you're big
Mutt & Nod
- Sha la la la la la la la la la la la la
Hyp
- When you're big
Mutt & Nod
- Sha la la la la la la la la la la la la
Hyp
- When you're big
Mutt & Nod
- Sha la la la la la la la la la la la la
Hyp
- When... you're... big
