Agony of Defeet Lyrics by Parliament

Tear the Roof Off 1974-1980

1980

Oh oh, I'm -- man get off my foot, ha-ha!
Said I 'mo take my shoes off (ha ha), and kick up my heels
Just watch me ya'll, umm huh
Said I 'mo take my shoes off, and kick up my heels
Now here I go, OK hah!
I got some ground work to do (Let's go strollin')
And I need a little support (On the dance floor)
Heel and toe ? ? ?? (Let's go strollin')
And just like the grinner I need just a little more foot, hah!
Tryin' to put a size twelve foot
In a size eight shoe (you know that won't do)
It's like putting on a five dollar hat
On a nickel head (It's about that hat rack)
Now promenade and do-si-do
Take your partner across the floor
Foot stompin time! Heel and toe - sidesteppin'!
HO!
I 'mo take my shoes off (Got to take my shoes)
And kick up my heels
Hey watch me ya'll hear I go
Hey
I 'mo take my shoes off
And kick up my heels
Not with your smelly feet!
See ya, BYE!
Party time
Step on it!
Come on!
Give up a dime! (LORD!)
Cool! (COME ON!)
Hey!
It's Party time!
Step on it!
Come on!
Give up a dime!
Party time!
Come on ya'll
He's got more socks than the ogre there in the corner
I believe it is, it's a toe jam
Are you any kin to Dr. Scholl's
You've got some funny looking toes
You've got some funny looking toes (Where'd you get that toe from?)
Are your toenails over-grown?
Cause ya see
I got ptomaine
And I'm gonna turn it loose on the dance floor
And I'm gonna spread my groove all over you
I got a ??? big blue
Heh, yeah
I'm gonna take my shoes off (yeah!)
I got to take my shoes off (yeah) (x 4)
Party time!
Step on it!
Come on!
Pick up a dime!
Cool! Hey!
It's party time!
Step on it!
Come on!
Pick up a dime!
Party time!
Yo, High toe Silver, away!
Lookin' for athletic feet
This is a toe jam session (hahahah)
I 'mo take my shoes off
Oooh, oooooh-ooooooh, oohhhhhh (x6)
I 'mo take my shoes off
And kick up my heels (I've got to take my shoes off)
Now watch it now, here I go. Here I go ya'll, look at me, haha
I'm gonna take my shoes off
And kick up my heels (I've got to take my shoes off)
Oh no not this smelly feet
I'm gonna take my shoes off (ho-ho)
I've got to take my shoes off (yeahh, whooo-ooo)
The Foot Stranger here, I'm looking for toe-jam
Come on Pronto (yeah!)
I'm gonna take my shoes off (Got to take my shoes off)
To kick up my heels
Now just watch me ya'll now, here I go, WHOAHH!
Said I 'mo take my shoes off (Got to take my shoes off)
Kick up my heels? (I got to take my shoes off)
Come on Donny, Come on Donny!
Yeahhhhh-woooooo!
I'm gonna take my shoes off and kick up my heels
(I 'mo take my shoes off)
It's about that...................mo' better (I got to take my shoes off)

Yeaaaaah-hooo! (I 'mo take my shoes off)
I got my shoes off (I got to take my shoes off)
I got my shoes off
Said, I 'mo take my shoes off (hahahaha)
