Long and Short of It Songtext
von Raven Milligan

Baby′s spewing words like some kind of machine
Knows I'm a translator
A servant, not a maid
Holds me real close to make sure that I fit
Dissects my brain with a home surgery kit
Now take your leftovers home and throw ′em in a tree
So that you can feel the air as you fly freely
Clear all the air as you feel the pressure
To get to yourself in the dead of the winter

How did you become
So long and short of it
And I'm sure you'll belong
In a world that′s tough


Baby′s coming home in the dead of the day
Couldn't stand the weather so she stood on a plain
Looking for love with a metal detector
Only heli models
Baby puts it together
Now take your platforms away and hit the piñata
Maybe this will be your only chance to pin another
And child locks are off
And doors are open
So baby will go
As she grows right inside it

How did you become
So long and short of it
And I′m sure you'll belong
In a world that′s tough

How did you become
So long and short of it
And I'm sure you′ll belong
In a world that's tough
