Little Man, Big Man

Preformed by Toad the Wet Sprocket
lyrics (c) 1997 Sony and Glen Phillips and Toad
Appearing on Toad the Wet Sprocket's album Coil

Little man, big man, who came first?
What is the measure of our worth?
If there was storm rolled in
who'd run inside, who'd go walking?

Little man, big man, what's inside
It's all in the places where we find our pride
If there was a soul lost by the road
who'd pass by, who'd take it home?

Where is the beast lying?
Is there a beast hiding?

Little man, big man, who is who?
It's all in the damage that our toys can do
If there was a rock and a window pane
Who'd throw stones, who'd walk away?

Where is the beast lying?
Is there a beast hiding?
Are we moving?
Are we learning?

Little man, big man, fade away
It's all in the violence of the games we play
It's all in the violence of the games we play
It's all in the love we give today
