winter time she ran away and hid.

Once she had a hollywood audition

Well, I bumped into a man who'd been a boxer (Boxer),

asked him what had been his greatest night.

He looked into the corners of his memory (Memory),

searching for a picture of the fight.

But he said he always had a feeling

that he lacked a little extra height

(Could have used a little extra height).

Yes mate, you heard right,

he always had a feeling that he might have lacked a little height.
