There’s a thunde
rcloud behind those eyes
A storms a’brewin, in your
mind-thoughts
A static electric discharge will
emanate
from your swollen
heart
Well, the doctor prescribes
Rubber
souls
–Rabbit keytar solo–
You can
teach
a rob
ot,
how
to
dance
You can’t
teach a pair
of sho
rts,
how
to
pants
Stand between two
mirrors, and
look into
the dis
tance
You’ll see you
times infinite, still
you’r
e
only hu
man
It’s a suit and tie af
fair and you’re only
wearing shoes
Although they’re pretty
slick, no one
will
let you through
Well, it doesn’t matter those
fancy shoes,
it’s all about the
words you choose
It doesn’t matter those
fancy shoes,
it’s
all about the
friends you’ll
lose
It doesn’t matter those
fancy shoes, so
wh
y would, why would
you?
I can see where there may be some confusio
n,
I was once
just like
you
Let me tell you a story to clarify the mat
ter,
once upon a time a
mouse put on some
shoes
Hey friend, where’d you get those fancy shoes,
Are you wearing them, or are they wearing you
I’ve seen you walking down the boulevard,
You
must’ve come pretty far, you make it look real hard
Those shoes, sparkle
gold and blue, alwaysEm
seem brand new,
Must’ve
set you back a few
Oh my, fancy
shoes distract me, I’m in theEm
path of a bus in the
Middle of a busy street
–Bus crash noises+Robot stuff–
Yo
u can fix a
rob
ot,
buff
out the
dents
Strap him into a
pair of fancy
shoes and,
flip the
switch to com
mence
But when all’s said and
done
,
are the shoe
s built
for fun?
Or to protect from broken
glass or toe
bit
ers in tall
grass?
When everyones in
red, you wear
blue
It’s just like you
to ig
nore simple
truths
Well, it doesn’t matter those
fancy shoes,
it’s all about the
words you choose
It doesn’t matter those
fancy shoes,
it’s
all about the
friends you’ll
lose
It doesn’t matter those
fancy shoes,
it’s
all about the
toes you’ll
lose
It doesn’t matter those
fancy shoes, so
wh
y would, why would
you?
