Bad Sneakers
Five names that I can hardly
Stand to hear
Including yours and mine
And one more chimp who isn't here
I can see the ladies talking
How the times are getting hard
And that fearsome excavation
On Magnolia Boulevard
And I'm going insane
And I'm laughing at the frozen rain
And I'm so alone
Honey when they gonna send me home
Bad sneakers and a Pi? A Colada
My friend stompin' on the avenue
By Radio City with at transistor
And a large sum of money to spend
You fellah, you tearin' up the street
You wear that white Tuxedo
How you gonna beat the heat
Do you take me for a fool?
Do you think that I don't see?
That ditch out in the valley
That they're digging just for me
And I'm going insane
And I'm laughing at the frozen rain
And I'm so alone
Honey when they gonna send me home
Bad sneakers and a Pi? A Colada
My friend stompin' on the avenue
By Radio City with at transistor
And a large sum of money to spend
