Story behind the song
The penguins at the Shedd Aquarium are developing sores on their feet. College engineering students have designed shoes to protect their feet.
Lyrics
We all got shoes
I got shoes You got shoes He's got shoes She's got shoes
Penguins need shoes
When you’re wearing a formal, it seems so abnormal
To walk barefoot on snow, ice and rocks
The tuxedo’s supplied but nature denied
A penguin of shoes and of socks
It seems that they oughta just stay in the water
Because they can’t fly with their wings
But we go to see ‘em at the fish museum
And laugh when they flap those short things
Their enclosures not heated so they stand on cold feet
Or get in the pool and tread
Some Northwestern pupils became very useful
When they visited the aquarium named Shedd
Becoming aware that with their feet bare
The birds get sores on their flippers
The students in college with their combined knowledge
Engineered custom slippers
chorus
Students you’re thinking would rather be drinking
A cold beverage from a brown bottle
But they put down the booze and cobbled some shoes
To help the fowl painlessly waddle
chorus
Now they stand on their flippers and eat lots of kippers
Showing off their covered soles
And the students are trying, they’re really applying
For jobs at Dr Scholl’s
Chorus x3 and fade out
