How often have you heard, Walk a mile in my shoes? I, for one, would like to just walk in my own shoes. Too long have I walked in others’. They are ill-fitting, causing me callouses, corns, bunions, anger, hate….discomfort and unhappiness all around. And they’re not even of my own making!
No more, I say. From now on, I only want to walk my own walk, talk my own talk. Let everyone else do their own trip and make their own speech.
Walk a mile in my own shoes
La di da da
Skip a mile in my own shoes
See if anyone cares
What are you waiting for
Do it for your own good
And everyone else’s too
Stumble in your own shoes
Mistakes are part of life
Strut a mile on your own steam
Make Mama proud of you
Do it right now
La di da da
Oh, Y E A H!
