I Want This Shoe



























Maybe I'll get this shoe for my birthday. (And the left one, too.)
Here's a good song off the Roches' new CD, Moonswept:

NO SHOES
i had no shoes and i complained
until i met a man who had no feet
that’s really beat i had no feet and i
complained until i met a man who
had no knees that was his disease
i had no knees and i complained until
i met a man and you know what he
had no butt i had no butt and i
complained about it all and then
i met a man who had no balls i had
no balls and i complained until i met
a man who had no guts no balls no
butt and now no guts i had no guts
and i complained until i met a man
who had no heart the most important
part i had no heart and i complained
i did not understand and then i met
a man who had no hands i had no hands
and i complained until i met a man who
was a wreck he had no neck i had no
neck and i complained until i met a
man who had no chin some folks lose
and some folks win i had no chin and i
complained until i met a man who had no
nose that really blows i had no nose and i
complained until i met a man who
never cries he had no eyes i had no eyes
and i complained until i met a man who
felt no pain he had no brain i had no
brain and i complained until i met a man
who had no head as good as dead i had no
head and i complained until i met a man
who had no hair there was nothing there
i had no hair and i complained until i met
a man who had no hat picture that not even
a hat i had no hat and i complained until i
met a man who had no sky no reason why
i had no sky and i complained until
i met a man who had no stars no
venus or mars and not any stars
i had no stars and i complained until
i met a man who had no god that’s
rather odd i had no god and I com-
plained until i met a man who had
no faith nothing just in case i had
no faith and i complained until i
met a man who had no love nothing
to dream of i had no love and i com-
plained until i met a man who had
no hope at the end of his rope i had
no hope and i complained until i met
a man who had no luck that really
sucks i had no luck and i complained
that i had nothing left to lose and
then i met a man who had no shoes.
