Story behind the song
We had visitors come to stay with us from a youth choir in Malawi. When I went to collect them they had clothes in a carrier bag. one guy split his shoes playing fottball with us - we had to go and buy him another pair - they were all he'd got. It made me think about all the possessions and trappings of my own lifestyle.
Lyrics
One pair of shoes is all you can wear at a time. I got best shoes and trainers and astros and sandals So many shoes you could call it a scandal When one pair of shoes is all you can wear at a time.
