Settlement

Settlement
If I take off my shoes
And I sell my toes
Does that make my toes, Fritos
If I close my eyes at night
am I legally blind, lost my sight
All I know is yes and no
and that air is light and darkness
the electrician fixed the wall switch
I put my mitten on my feet
I place my feet above my head
Now this is the time even corpse wish they were dead
