You were right about
"Short People are just the same
As you and I
(A Fool Such As I)
All men are brothers
Until the day they die
(It's A Wonderful World)"
being a key part of the song. However, it's not the "true meaning" of the song. It's more like a cynical imitation of how people talk in one way, and think ridiculous thoughts about other people again right after that. People are hypocrites. Short people can be replaced by gay people, black people, female people, just about any group there is. Newman is holding a mirror, showing us how arrogant and short-minded we are. Why would we be any better than any other of us? Don't judge people too soon.
