“Tiny Town” is a song about Tall Poppy Syndrome, in which the talented are cut down to size by the less-talented.
The term comes from Australian culture, but apparently applied to the late-1980s American evangelical subculture, as well.
[Spoken]
Stop surfing
[Verse 1]
Calling all the ants
This is our last chance
Trumpet of the saints
Call the heads of states
[Chorus 1]
And let's all kill the giants
Let's all kill the giants
Of tiny town
[Verse 2]
Hold the torches high
Lay them down to die
They know more than we know
And all they do is grow
[Chorus 1]
So let's all kill the giants
Let's all kill the giants
Of tiny town
[Bridge]
Hang moss upon their visions
Put glass around their dreams
Dissension is their mission
Tenacious in their schemes
[Chorus 1]
Let's all kill the giants
Let's all kill the giants
Of tiny town
[Verse 3]
Divide the wheat and tares
And set the traps and snares
Put rebellion down
It's safe in tiny town
[Chorus 2]
'Cause we've all killed the giants
We've all killed the giants
[Outro]
Tiny town
Tiny town
Tiny town
Tiny town
(It's safe in tiny town)
Tiny town
Tiny town
(It's safe in tiny town)
Tiny town
Tiny town
(It's safe in tiny town)
Tiny town
Tiny town
(It's safe in tiny town)
Tiny town
