I'M DANCING WITH MYSELF
They say, "You can't judge a man
until you've walked a mile in his shoes"
so I stole your shoes
and I walked a mile in them
- and I still won't consider you a friend
The shoes were a pair of Nikes
I do admit I like these
white and navy blue
You're a dick in pretty shoes
I must say, you're a dick in pretty shoes
and I thought of the kid who had made them
working his ass off for a loaf of bread
and for all I know that kid just might be dead
They say, "You can't judge a man
until you've walked a mile in his shoes"
Does that rule apply
to a man who mostly walks barefoot?
Of all my old hippie friends
there is one that I can't stand
so I stole his shoes
and walked across the land
- and now I'm gonna judge that man
'Cause you're a dick!
That's your new title.
