about

On my Facebook page, I asked for song title ideas. One idea presented turned out to be the title of this song. Coincidentally, about that time, I heard a news reporter mention an airline shifting seats a little bit closer together on planes. Aha! That did it!

lyrics

Did you hear the news?
The airlines are feeling a pinch.
I've been told the crews
are taking away another inch.
What are they tryin' to do, I ask ya?
Some of us need the space.
They keep packin' in more 'n' more seats,
but I need room for my legs.

I need room for my legs! Oh, man!
You know, I need room for my legs!
Please stop pushin' those seats so close together;
I need room for my legs!

I just bought a new car;
it'll go all day on one tank.
But when I get behind the wheel,
I discover the chassis shrank
What are they tryin' to do, I ask ya?
Some of us need the space.
Sure, I get better MPG,
but I need room for my legs.

I need room for my legs! Oh, man!
You know, I need room for my legs!
Please don't make the cars any smaller,
cuz I need room for my legs!

I just went to a movie;
It's one I really wanted to see
They had moved the rows to fit more,
and there wasn't any room for my knees.
What are they tryin' to do, I ask ya?
Some of us need the space.
I don't like the knees pokin' in my back
and I need room for my legs.

I need room for my legs! Oh, man!
You know, I need room for my legs!
Please stop pushin' those rows together,
cuz I need room for my legs!
Please stop pushin' those rows together,
cuz I need room for my legs!
