Фобия... песня

I do not like long words,
They are too big for me.
I like small words, like birds,
That are so short and free.

Big words are hard to read,
I get lost in a line.
I want a word with speed,
simple, Short and fine.

When I talk, I want it fast,
No long words to hold me back.
"Hi!" is nice, "Bye!" is cool,
That’s my rule, my simple rule.

That's my rule, it's not a hobby. Ha!
I'm faster than Shinobi. Ha!
Because I have a little problem. Ha!

what?
Hippo-poto-monstro-sesqui-peda-lio-phobi-AAA!

what?!!!
Hippo-poto-monstro-sesqui-peda-lio-phobi-AAA!

"Run", "jump", "play", "see", "go",
These words I know, these words I know.
They fit my mouth, they fit my mind,
Simple and clear, so kind, so kind.

I want to say "yes" or "no",
I want to say "run" or "go".

A short word is my goal.

"Cat" is good, and "dog" is fine,
"Sun" and “fun” — they just shine.
But "antidisestablishmentarianism"? Oh no!
That word is far, too long, too slow.

When I talk, I want it fast,
No long words to hold me back.
"Hi!" is nice, "Bye!" is cool,
That’s my rule, my simple rule.

That's my rule, it's not a hobby. Ha!
I'm faster than Shinobi. Ha!
Because I have a little problem. Ha!

Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia (или гиппопотомонстросескипедалофобия) — это термин, который с иронией обозначает патологический страх перед длинными и сложными словами. Само название этой «фобии» — одно из самых длинных слов в английском языке, что добавляет ситуации комичности. В основе термина лежат греческие и латинские корни: hippopotamo (от «гиппопотам», для усиления), monstrous (монструозный, огромный), sesquipedalian (длиной в полтора фута, то есть очень длинное слово) и phobia (страх).
