These Feet Ain't Got No Body
Free-Spirited Soles: Dancing Through Life
Lyrics
these two feet they got a mind of their own
These feet have a will of their own, independent and decisive.
don’t need no direction they know where to go
They do not require guidance; they instinctively know their path.
wanna get new scuffs on these old soles
Desire for new marks on well-worn shoe soles, symbolizing a journey.
making ground in my home town
Progressing and making a mark in the familiar territory of the hometown.
where sticky wet heat slicks the concrete
Describing the hot urban environment where the feet move.
ain’t gonna stop them from moving
Despite challenges like heat, the feet are relentless in their motion.
these feet ain’t got no body
Emphasizing the detachment of the feet from a specific body.
these feet ain’t got no one
Reiterating the lack of a companion or connection for the feet.
these feet ain’t got no body
Highlighting the solitude of the feet without a defined identity.
but these feet still know how to have fun
Despite the detachment, the feet can still enjoy and engage in fun activities.
2nd street and Figuro’
Specific location reference, suggesting a real or metaphorical place.
Liberate and lift my soul
Expressing a desire for freedom and spiritual elevation in that location.
It’s cast from the street lamps someone else wants this dance
Street lights symbolize an invitation to dance, possibly from others.
But who is anyone when i got moves
Confidence in one's abilities and uniqueness while dancing.
Solo down in my home town
Continuing the journey alone, enjoying personal exploration.
no running out the clock got this on lock
Confidence in not being limited by time constraints.
Ain’t gonna stop them from moving
Regardless of obstacles, the feet persist in their movement.
these feet ain’t got no body
Reaffirming the lack of a physical body connected to the feet.
these feet ain’t got no one
Reiterating the absence of a companion or partner for the feet.
these feet ain’t got no body
Emphasizing the solitude and individuality of the feet.
but these feet still know how to have fun
Despite the detachment, the feet can still find joy and pleasure.
Oh Oh
An exclamation, possibly indicating a moment of realization or emphasis.
Got no body
Stating the literal absence of a body connected to the feet.
Ain’t got no body
Repeating the idea that the feet lack a physical body.
