FOLLOWS I Hope I Get It
I'm watchin' Sis go pit-a-pat.
Said, I can do that. I can do that.
Knew every step right off the bat.
Said, I can do that. I can do that.
One morning Sis won't go to dance class.
I grab her shoes and tights and all,
But my foot's too small. So,
I stuff her shoes with extra socks,
Run seven blocks in nothing flat.
Hell, I can do that. I can do that!
I got to class and had it made
And so I stayed the rest of my life.
All thanks to Sis (now married and fat),
I can do this.
That I can do! I can do that!
(speaks)
And then everybody started calling me Twinkle-Toes.
