Mighty Little Man Lyrics

A tired man
in his chair
doesn't move
he only stares

at the machine
across the room
there's nothing there
it's not getting through

He shakes his head
finally stands up
throws his hands up
in the air

A blinding flash across the room
A sudden crash
A sonic boom
Changes everything he knew

It's everything he's never seen
the biggest deal there's ever been
described in light upon the screen

Nobody else is stronger than I am
Yesterday I moved a mountain
I bet I could be your hero
I am a mighty little man

I am a mighty little man
I am a mighty little man

From way up here you can't look down
And as of now there is no ground
The microscope's been turned around

Don't be alarmed
Don't make a fuss
He's still like you
He's one of us
And he'll come back before too long

Takes a breath
Clears his mind
Grabs his coat
Steps outside
An empty street
There's no one there
He lifts himself
Into the air
A billion thoughts
Expressed as one

Etched in words
Across the sun
And it said:

Nobody else is stronger than I am
Yesterday I moved a mountain
I bet I could be your hero
I am a mighty little man

Nobody else is stronger than I am
Yesterday I moved a mountain
I bet I could be your hero
I am a mighty little man
I am a mighty little man

Nobody else is stronger than I am
Yesterday I moved a mountain
I am a mighty little man
I bet I could be your hero
I am a mighty little man
I am a mighty little man

Dude, there's actually like a whole two more minutes to this song, which is amazing. They follow as (if anyone's interested):

it's so hard to believe the guy from blue's clues could make such an amazing album.

kinda wish he was still at blues clues....still either way he makes some awesome songs =D

This song is about him wanting to move on, so he isn't known as "the guy from Blue's Clues" the rest of his life. The lyrics are pretty obvious that he grew tired with a part of his life, and wanted to end it and start a new part.

I think it's about discovering inner heroism/strength.

I agree with all of you. This is actually my favorite song off SfD along with Troposhere. Actually nevermind, I don't have a favorite. I wish he'd tour in CA again soon..

This song is ace.

Actually, as opposed to what ThePlaygroundMiracle said, in an interview with Steve Burns, he said that he doesn't mind at all being "Steve, from Blues Clues", he even said he's proud of it. It's where he got his start, and he's not ashamed at all. Hell, the interview was done with him sitting in "The Thinking Chair"

As for my idea of what the song is. I think that it's kind of saying that anyone can be strong, in their own way. Size and physical ability have nothing to do with it, everyone has inner strength, and you shouldn't let people tell you otherwise.

I think ThePlaygroundMircle was close to right. He wanted to move on from his past and do something new. But I definately don't think that he regrets who he was and how he got here. I think it's a song about recognizing who you were and using it to make a stronger future for yourself.

I used to love watching him in Blues Clue's and I also totally dig this track. Is he still making music?
