Short Music for Short People is a 1999 compilation album released on the Fat Wreck Chords record label. The title is a parody of the 1980s punk compilation Rat Music for Rat People. It features 101 bands playing songs averaging approximately 30 seconds in length.

With a few exceptions, most of the album's tracks were written and recorded specifically for this release at the request of Fat Wreck Chords founder and NOFX bassist/vocalist Fat Mike. It peaked at #191 on the Billboard 200.


Note: Since a CD may only have 99 tracks, the final three songs are all on track 99.
