My new favorite song. P.s., school sucks, but so it goes. I should’ve gone to medical school…
The Cat Empire – Two Shoes
One day one woman asked him,
“What do you to survive?”
He said, “Oh my dear, listen here,”
and this is what he cried:
“On my feet I wear two shoes for dancing,
dancing to be free.
Well, my feet they’re paying tribute to
the Bobby Marley legacy.
And my knees they've got some cuts and bruises
from skating all my days
‘Cos when i'm skating with my friends
my troubles drift away.
I say my legs they're wearing baggy pants,
I like to move around
‘cos getting down and jumping up
these are some good things that I found…
boom shak the empire be rising
boom shak we making some loving
boom shak the greedy men running
boom shak got two shoes for dancing
Well, my waist it's got a slinky belt
with a clip that's quick to open
because loving is the sweetest thing
and from my waist it happens.
And my stomach’s got some tasty food
that's making me feel good,
‘cos sharing some meals is something
I wish the world could do.
Well, my chest, it wears a singlet.
Well, my chest, it beating proud.
Oh, my chest suggest I am a man
that no institution can knock down.
And around my neck is superstition
hanging from a chain,
because I've got my gods but in the end
I make my own way…
CHORUS
And my mouth, it’s got a great big smile
that shows some great big teeth.
To friends it brings a happiness,
and to enemies it brings defeat.
And my eyes they’ve got some vision
that can see through many lies.
Well, my eyes they look for better things
the better things to see in life.
Well, my ears are wearing headphones
that do play my favorite songs,
not music I’m told to like,
but the songs that make me dance along…
‘Cos on my feet are shoes for dancing,
dancing to be free.
Oh, my feet they’re paying tribute to
the Bobby Marley legacy…”
CHORUS
