My Feat

When my soles were first created Mom and Dad did consummated Tossed and turned out a head Lost my bearings feet instead After spank to make a cry Inked and printed black feet dye One small step for little baby One giant leap for parent's maybe After one two or three needle All of a sudden I was bipedal On my soles could not lose Roll the dice need some shoes Give me some that have three strips To young now no worry the types Later on when I spike I'll be running with the Nike School is done say hoot hoot Off to work construction boot Fancy ones for all those dates And the ones that they call skates Walked around in those slippers Even walked in things called flippers The only shoes I could not handle Had to be the dreaded sandal As a man with covered soles Went through life achieving goals Feet first baby I begun Lucky me I could have none
