I'm not taking my sneakers off
I am Sneakers O'Toole
There's a name we shout from the rooftops high
He walks through the streets with his sneakers tied
They told him once, they told him twice, but he won't obey that rule
For the world belongs to the legend, the great O'Toole
Praise be the sneakers, shining and true
Holy are the laces, worn by O'Toole
Step by step, he shows us the way
Never take your sneakers off, not now, not any day
We are the chosen, the faithful few
Walking in the footsteps of O'Toole
They try to tempt, they try to bind
But we've got sneakers of a different kind
Praise be the sneakers, shining and true
Holy are the laces, worn by O'Toole
Step by step, he shows us the way
Never take your sneakers off, not now, not any day
They told me I should take them off. They said I must conform
But when I wear these sneakers, I feel safe, I feel warm
Through shadows and through sorrow
Through fire and through school
I'm not taking my sneakers off
I am Sneakers O'Toole
I didn't take my sneakers off! I am still Sneakers O'Toole!
Voices rise, the chorus sings
Crowds bow down to the sneakers of kings
From alleys dark to heavens bright
Sneakers O'Toole is our guiding light
Praise be the sneakers, shining and true
Holy are the laces, worn by O'Toole
Step by step, he shows us the way
Never take your sneakers off, not now, not any day
Amen, O'Toole
