TRENT--BUILDING A SHOE RACK

Trent, my fifth child:

...he gathers nuts 'n bolts 'n bits of string...

BUILDING A SHOE RACK

I think I'll build a shoe rack;
it's a very useful thing.
I'll search the many junk drawers;
just to find a bit of string.

I need a hanger for the frame--
nothin' else will do.
I'll use a stretch of masking tape,
and a tiny dab of glue.

Now this contraption may seem odd
and look a little strange.
'Cause I took the light bulb
from the hood above the kitchen range.

I'll take a needle and some thread;
and sew it all together.
And paint it colors of every hue;
it simply can't get better.

Now there's a pocket for every shoe--
it's really very handy.
'Cause I can fit my socks in too,
and a bit of hard tack candy!
