He Needs A What?

She danced around her room.
She was listening to her new album.
Her mom yelled for her to turn it down.
She turned it up.

She heard him sing
We all need it.
I need a toe.

She stopped dancing.
With a dumb look on her face she stared at the album in her hand.
He needs a what?
A toe?
Surely this can't be right.

She kept listening.
He said it again.
We all need it.
I need a toe.

Why does he need a toe she wondered.
Who cares.
Next verse she belted out
WE ALL NEED IT
I NEED A TOE.
