The Lyrics

Utopia was Todd Rundgren's excellent four piece band in the 80's. This song originally had a video that was hilarious. I turned it into a lament over the agony of defeet.
I can't go, I can't get around no more
Down below, there's a pain that I can't ignore
Feet don't ail me now
Anyone can see it's time to get the chair
Time for talcum powder
Orthopedic shoes
And it feels like my toes have been overused

Feet don't ail me now
Bunion please don't throb inside my shoe
Feet don't ail me now
Fallen arches don't know what to do
Feet don't ail me now
And that gout is starting to come through
Feet don't ail me now
Bunion hurts like heck I'm telling you

See X-rays, bone spurs and calcium
What they found, is I'm gonna limp, not run
Feet don't ail me now
I'm sure I'll need that crutch
Anyone can see I'm hurting way too much
Time to use a walker
Ankles are now gone
And it feels like my toes have been hammered on

Feet don't ail me now
Bunion please don't throb inside my shoe
Feet don't ail me now
Fallen arches don't know what to do
Feet don't ail me now
And that gout is starting to come through
Feet don't ail me now
Bunion hurts like heck I'm telling you
Ouch!

I remember this video was around #9 on Dr. Demento's Top 20 Demented videos of all time, and was hilarious! Didn't know Todd Rundgren was in the band. Too bad more people don't know the original. Good job on your version.
