Shoes

I don't explain, I don't excuse

The reason why I don't like shoes.

They've ruled our feet these many years,

As folks with bunions say with tears.

Florsheim or tight cowboy boots,

They only bear us bitter fruits.

What is spent on shoes could buy

The island nation of Brunei.

Add the socks, the laces, and

You could purchase cold Greenland.

If we had true laissez faire

All our feet would be quite bare!
