On shoes

I've got a lot to say to you,
Said the man who smells of shoe,
It's all about what you must know,
To make you go with the flow,
First thing's first; that is to say that,
You are very very fat,
Next is next; which is to say which,
My word is the only pitch,
Now since I see you are quite dull,
I think you should sit and mull,
About the reason I put forth,
Why you should start heading north,
You see, my friend, it's all about,
Why you have good cause to pout,
Because you're fat and lazy, too,
I have brought you a nice shoe,
With it you can journey northward,
It costs all you can afford,
However, since I'm in the mood,
I'll take your laundry and food,
The other shoe will cost twice that,
And I'll have to take your cat,
Do not worry, It's a good cause,
North pays in moles and macaws,
Here I'll fit you for your new shoe,
Oh, your feet, they just won't do,
I'll take your gold, gems, and the door,
For these feet it will take more,
These shoes I have are much to small,
For fitting your wherewithal,
You'll have to slim, that is quite clear,
Hurry now, the end is near,
Oh, you're thin now, that I can see,
I will take my thinness fee,
All that work has made you filthy,
Take soap and make you frothy,
I'll keep the shoes and all your things,
Run and jump down in the springs,
Excited by my chance at shoes,
I gave the man all his dues,
Bid him farewell, ran to the spring,
Washed myself and then did sing,
I twittered home just like a bird,
What I found was just absurd,
My stuff was gone, my house foreclosed,
No shoes as I had supposed.
