Mumpher: Well I'm a tall, tall Texan I'm talking tall, tall, tall (He comes from Texas and he's really tall) I change a light bulb easy I play great basketball (He's great at light bulbs and at basketball) Even the longest long-johns Are always way too small (The longest long-johns always way too small)

Even one tiny little meatball Is way too big to eat (One tiny meatball's way too big to eat)
