Shoes are what go on my feet,
Shoes are what my puppy likes to eat,
Shoes are what people go shopping for,
Shoes are what go on the floor.
Shoes are what you throw around,
Shoes are what give you a frown,
When you can't wear them around.
Shoes are what give you grip,
When you're on a moving ship.
Shoes are what can store clues,
Shoes are what you can lose,
Shoes are what give you a bruise.
Shoes are what you tie up with laces,
Shoes are what you find in all kinds of places.
Shoes are what have a bad smell,
Shoes are what are hidden in a dirty cell.
