Letra de Barefeet
i was woken by the postman followed by the siren of an ice cream van and the kids were making too much noise i had to go out and shout and confiscate their toys i want to buy a big house on a waterfront with a view of the bay and with trees in front it'll have to have heating in the swimming pool so it's eighty six degrees even when it's cool i want to be where i can walk in barefeet 'cause they don't break milk bottles in the back street i was nearly asleep when i was disturbed by a crack like a whip, but i knew what i'd heard then there was a knock at my front door it was eddie, he's a friend of my neighbor eddie said "mike can i use your phone billy's been shot in his own home" i want to buy a big house... i want to buy a little plastic yacht even though i know I'd never use it alit maybe we could take it out one day go and visit some friends that live across the bay i want to buy a big car and never drive it have a double garage where i can i hide it with temperature control so my leather seat won't stick to my pants in the summer heat i want to buy a big painting, a twelve by eight by somebody who's famous and everyone hates it'll have to be expensive and real sparse and i won't know what it means when my friends ask i just want to be where i can walk in barefeet 'cause they don't break milk bottles in the back street
