(The Angels Wanna Wear My) Red Shoes |
Oh, I used to be disgusted |
And now, I try to be amused |
But since their wings have got rusted |
You know, the angels want to wear my red shoes |
But when they told me 'bout their side of the bargain |
That's when I knew that I could not refuse |
And I won't get any older, now the angels want to wear my red shoes |
Oh, oh, I was watching while you're dancing away |
Our love got fractured in the echo and sway |
How come everybody wants to be your friend? |
You know that it still hurts me just to say it |
Oh, I know that she's disgusted (Oh, why's that?) |
Because she's feeling so abused (Oh, that's too bad) |
She gets tired of the lust (Oh, I'm so sad) |
But it's so hard to refuse |
Can you say that I'm too old |
When the angels have stolen my red shoes? |
Oh, I said, "I'm so happy I could die." |
She said, "Drop dead," then left with another guy |
That's what you get if you go chasing after vengeance |
Ever since you got me punctured, this has been my sentence |
Oh, I used to be disgusted |
Well now, I try to be amused |
But since their wings have got rusted |
You know, the angels want to wear my red shoes |
But when they told me 'bout their side of the bargain |
That's when I knew that I could not refuse |
And I won't get any older, now the angels want to wear my red shoes |
Oh, I won't get any older, now the angels want to wear my red shoes |
Red shoes, the angels want to wear my red shoes |
Red shoes, the angels want to wear my red shoes... |
