"My Pal Foot Foot" is a song by The Shaggs, appearing on their 1969 release, Philosophy of the World, as well as on the follow-up album, Shaggs' Own Thing (which would not be released until 1982). It is their best-known song. The lyrics revolve around a rather nonsensical journey to find "Foot Foot", their cat, who has run away. As with many of the Shaggs' songs, the lyrics are childlike and amusing in nature, with "Foot Foot" finally being found behind a tree. It is also notable for its complete lack of any form or structure that normally encompasses popular rock music. The musicianship is as childlike as the lyrics. The song both begins and ends with a drum solo, the latter of which, according to Rolling Stone writer Chris Connelly, "may give (the late) Keith Moon a good spin or two."
