I felt sorry for myself because I had no shoes
Then I met a man who had no feet.

I said, "Hey, can I have your old shoes?"

2. If he'd had feet he probably would have kicked your a$$
And I would have laughed. :rofl:

3. That's actually a song by The Foremen...
Besides, you should always remember that, before you criticize another human, you should always walk a mile in their shoes.

That way, when you do criticize them, you'll have a mile head start, and they won't have their shoes.

:evilgrin:

6. Where y'think I got it?
You're the first person I've met here who knows the Foremen. :toast:

Now I lay me down to learn
Which to read and which to burn
Pray the Lord my soul to turn
Over to the school board

Free to worship as I please
Long as it pleases the authorities
Hear me praying on my knees
My School Prayer

Once again, boys and girls, I'll remind you that this activity is not mandatory, and those of you who don't believe in a Judeo-Christian God as defined by Congress, should feel free to sit quietly with your fingers in your ears, like the atheistic heathen you are. Agnostics may want to plug just one ear.

May my every sneeze be blessed
May I pass my urine test
May my mind be underes...timated
And ignored, Lord

Keep my classroom safe and clean
Sanctify my M-16
Every morning, 8:15
It's my School Prayer

4. Just spray paint your feet...
People hardly notice stuff like that.

5. Or Steve Martin's version:
I felt sorry for myself because I had no shoes...

...until I met a man who had no socks.

9. She's barefootin'
Everybody get on your feet you make me nervous when you're in your seat
Take off your shoes and pat your feet we're doin' a dance that can't be beat
We're barefootin' we're barefootin' we're barefootin' we're barefootin'
Went to a party the other night long tall Sally was out of sight
Threw 'way her wig and her high sneakers too she's doing a dance without any shoesShe's barefootin' she's barefootin' she's barefootin' she's barefootin'
Hey little girl with your red dress on bet you can barefoot all night long
Take off your shoes and throw 'em away come back and get 'em another day
We're barefootin' we're barefootin' we're barefootin' we're barefootin'
Everybody be barefootin' take your shoes off

Little John Henry he said to Sue if I barefoot would you barefoot too
Sue told John I'll stir your stew I was barefootin' ever since I was two
I'm barefootin' we're barefootin' we're barefootin' we're barefootin'
Barefootin' we're barefootin' don't have no shoes on we're barefootin'
We're barefootin' we're barefootin' we're barefootin' we're barefootin'
