Taken from the Steely Dan song Bad Sneakers.

I just changed some words.

bad sneakers

3 names that I can hardly stand to hear.

Including yours and mine,

and one more GIR who isn't here.

I can hear my classmates talkin'

how the times are getting hard,

and that fearsome large explosion,

on that Zim's boulevard.

They think

I'm going insane,

that i'm laughing at the frozen rain,

but i'm so alone,

daddy when they gunna send me home?

Bad sneakers, and a live wire mountain dew.

Stompin' on the avenue by Zim's freaky base,

with a transistor, and a large note book

were i'm writing things in.

"You fella, you tearin' up the street.

You wear that black jacket,

how you gunna take the heat?"

Do you take me for a fool,

Do you think that I dont see,

the grave out in the valley,

they are diggin' just for me.

They think

I'm going insane,

that i'm laughing at the frozen rain,

but i'm so alone,

daddy when they gunna send me home?

Bad sneakers, and a live wire mountain dew,

stompin' on the avenue by Zim's freaky base,

with a transistor and a large book

were i'm writing things in
