Untied Shoes Trippin Off the Laces

I've been walking these them streets;
Trippin and fallin;
Skinned my elbow and knees;
Lying on my back lookin at the trees;
Wondering will any body come and help me;
Guess I've wouldn't have fallen;
If my shoe laces were tied;
Guess I'm payin my dues;
Trippin off laces of untied shoes;
