New Shoes
I need new shoes to go to school,
Papi is taking me to, Mission dry goods.
New shoes for school, the Golden Rule,
Got a new grey sweater with a hood.
Gonna get new shoes today,
But they are just to go to school.
The old ones are so I can play,
Not so I can look so cool.
So all I want are PF Flyers,
Then everyone can look at me.
He can run faster, jump even higher
they'll say, just like Johnny Quest on t.v.
I am so happy, Papi bought for me,
My PF Flyers at the shoe store today.
I can run faster jump higher you see,
I got new shoes for school, hooray.
