Velcro Shoes - Pete Yorn

Got new shoes today my friends

I hope you like them they have velcro straps

I think I’ll wear them home and then

Decide to rip them off and take a bath

Okay

Now in the tub I have more friends

The yellow duckie and the floating house

I think I’ll break them both again

But that’s alright 'cause I don’t need them any more

Perhaps this time we’ll build a tree house

Where we can climb and waste the boring days away

Maybe this time we’ll build a go-kart

And drive around the world

Billy let’s play

Billy let’s play

It’s time for lunch so what’s to eat?

PB and J cut up in squares of four

A glass of milk for little Pete

He’s such a good boy let him have some more

A tale of black birds in the trees

A faithless man who hides behind closed doors

So many lovely memories

A happy face was all I ever needed

Perhaps this time we’ll build a tree house

Where we can climb and waste the boring days away

Maybe this time we’ll build a go-kart

And drive around the world

Billy let’s play

Billy let’s play

Let me be for the last time

Let me be for the last time

Set me free one more time

Set me free one more time

I got new shoes today my friends

I hope you like them they have velcro straps,

They do.
