lyrics
I own a happy midget I walk him in the yard
He's tethered to a leash we don't go very far
Stumpy arms and legs prancing by my side
He trains so hard I promised him one day we'd go outside
Oh, my proud little man
somersaults and handstands
Show me those silly midget tricks
When I clap my hands he jumps and does a flip
I tell him that it's time he shrieks and wets the floor
When I attach his leash he drags me to the door
We will show the people who used to laugh at you
Just what a special midget can be trained to do
Oh, stubby dwarven friend
My companion till the end
Runs just as fast as he can
Don't forget to flip when I clap my hands
Strutting down the street he's on his brand new leash
He tries to jump on people I keep him out of reach
All the people ask me why I treat him wrong
I tell them they did worse then we sing our song
"Happy little midget, running down the street
Happy little midget, skip on stunted feet
Walk my funny midget, watch him do his tricks"
Then I clap my hands he jumps and does a flip
He's tethered to a leash we don't go very far
Stumpy arms and legs prancing by my side
He trains so hard I promised him one day we'd go outside
Oh, my proud little man
somersaults and handstands
Show me those silly midget tricks
When I clap my hands he jumps and does a flip
I tell him that it's time he shrieks and wets the floor
When I attach his leash he drags me to the door
We will show the people who used to laugh at you
Just what a special midget can be trained to do
Oh, stubby dwarven friend
My companion till the end
Runs just as fast as he can
Don't forget to flip when I clap my hands
Strutting down the street he's on his brand new leash
He tries to jump on people I keep him out of reach
All the people ask me why I treat him wrong
I tell them they did worse then we sing our song
"Happy little midget, running down the street
Happy little midget, skip on stunted feet
Walk my funny midget, watch him do his tricks"
Then I clap my hands he jumps and does a flip

Cretin San Jose, California
Formed in 1992 by guitarist and vocalist, Marissa Martinez, and bassist, Matt Widener, Cretin was the Santa Cruz Mountains' answer to the wave of death metal and grind that was infesting the scene. They spent two years with a multitude of different drummers and ultimately put the band on hold to focus on other things. ... more

If this came through your feed, you're probably like "Way to go dumbass... You didn't have this shit already??" 😂🤣 I'll have you know I am buying this album once again (for like, what? the 4th time??) to pick up the new sick "sea blue gel" vinyl variant of this modern classic. Jfc Earache Records still knows how to grab my money, even after all these years haha. Have a feeling "Hiss" will be near the top of my Albums of the Decade list when all is said and done. What an absolute masterpiece.
