Mortons Foot

Meet Morton Foote, a 1970’s-styled, eccentric tv detective. Morton solves every case despite being physically challenged [à la “Ironside” and “Longstreet”]. Morton’s challenge? His 2nd toe is longer than his big toe. Starring Michael Hanna and Kellylee Evans.
So there’s your theme song, concept and stars. Go write us a pilot.

So do ya so do ya do bop bet-cha do bop       
A boppin’ ballet I’m a-cravin’ today        
I do bop I do I do bop then I re-bop    
In 4/4 time your feets are fly’n’    
Can we bop can we two bebop nope I can’t bop    
I’m kind o’ slow on account of my toe   
If I bop I might have to stop all this hip hop    
Stubbin’ that protrudin’ toe    

And I’m fallin’ for you  feels like you’re fallin’ for me too   
I’ll be discreet I gotta be sure that you never sneak a peek at my feet   

Your feet? What’s up with your feet? Tell me toute suite    
I’m on fire with a dancin’ desire to bop
I wanna bebop to the back beat
Fast or slow I wanna know
No, no renegade toe’s  gonna slow me    
A slide and  a slip and a shake of the hip and a    
Tip before we embark on our friendship    
Don’t trip on my protrudin’ toe    

Hypnotized by your groove mesmerized by the way you move    
I’ll draw strength from diggin’ a dude with a digit of prodigious length    

So we bop we bop ‘til we drop In our high tops
Leave ‘em untied ‘til we later decide
To flip flop and make  a short hop to the pot shop
Once we’re there we climb the stairs
To doo wop we’re singin’ doo wop on the roof top
As we recline with a bottle of wine
A kiss we couldn’t resist then the mic drop
Smashin’ that protrudin’ toe  Baskin’ in the afterglow    

And I beseech ya don’t dismiss the creature
That features a protrudin’ toe
