How does this admittedly lazy-brained script work for you?:
---
open(IN,"filetosnip.txt") or die $!;
open(OUT, ">tempfile.txt") or die $!;
$line = <IN>;$line = <IN>;$line = <IN>;$line = <IN>;
while($line = <IN>) {
        print OUT $line;
}
close IN;
close OUT;
---
tempfile.txt should have your truncated file in it.
