The Right Size

"That's What Friends Do" is a song from the Johnny and the Sprites episode "The Twenty-Foot Root." It is performed by John Tartaglia as Johnny, with brief spoken bits from Heather Asch as Root. In the story, Root wishes he were bigger and ends up growing magically to 20 feet tall, but finds it to not be a good size for him. Johnny sings the song to assure him that he's special to him no matter what size he is. It is featured as track 7 on the Johnny and the Sprites music album.

Lyrics
Johnny

When you're feeling like you don't belong Feeling like the size you are is wrong Wishing you were taller Or you had some bigger wings Just think while you're the little one You can have more than a little fun Small's the perfect size to do So many great big things

Root

Really?

Johnny

You bet. It's the right size To ride piggyback Doesn't hurt my back, in fact I can carry you to places near and far Remember the right size is whatever size you are

It's the right size To play hide-and-seek Hide where other Sprites can't peek And scrunch up small and never leave a clue I promise the right size is whatever size is you

There's lots of time to grow Be yourself and take it slow Trust me because I know I was little once too

Root

You?

Johnny

And grew

Root

Wow.

Johnny

You're the right size, naturally You're who you're supposed to be And one day soon, you're gonna realize Your big smile and your big heart They're the most important part And they will always be the right size, you see You're the right size to be friends with me.
