The Lyrics
For all the vertically challenged out there (including me)
I wish I could grow up taller
I wish I could grow up taller
I wish I could grow up taller
Then I would see more things
Good stretching I need
To reach five foot three
I wish I had grown up taller
Maybe I should grow wings
I won't grow unless I get stretched
I won't grow unless I get stretched
I won't grow unless I get stretched
I will stay quite petite
Good stretching I need
To reach five foot three
I wish I had grown up taller
Maybe I should grow wings
I don't think I'll get much taller
I don't think I'll get much taller
I don't think I'll get much taller
Been five foot since thirteen
I wish I could grow up taller
I wish I could grow up taller
Then I would see more things
Good stretching I need
To reach five foot three
I wish I had grown up taller
Maybe I should grow wings
I won't grow unless I get stretched
I won't grow unless I get stretched
I won't grow unless I get stretched
I will stay quite petite
Good stretching I need
To reach five foot three
I wish I had grown up taller
Maybe I should grow wings
I don't think I'll get much taller
I don't think I'll get much taller
I don't think I'll get much taller
Been five foot since thirteen

Song was a bit short, and likely a tall tale... but cute!
You've made it to 5' 5.5"
Cute stuff, LBGG. I personally would have liked to have seen more variation, like:
I wish I could grow up taller
Coz only dwarfs are smaller
I won't be a basketballer
And I wear children's gear
or something like that. ;-) Still, this is 5s worthy.

You think you got it bad I'm only 4' 8". the parody was cute though.
