When the thought of any good love

Seems as far off as the sun

And friends are cold and distant

Over some stupid thing I've done

I used to wax and wallow

In the throes of misery

Now I simply just haul myself down to the mall

And buy a pair of therapy.

New shoes, new shoes

Oh life seems so much better

In some brand new patent leather

Guaranteed to shine away your blues

Even on credit, I never regret it

I just adore new shoes.



Now some women cheer themselves

With a brand new slinky dress

Well, I've gained three sizes since I've been in college

That would just serve to depress

But get me to an Agnier,

Even a Payless will do in a pinch,

I don't like to brag but my feet are quite slim

They have not gained an inch.



New shoes, new shoes

A brand new set of pumps

Can get me out of the dumps

I get to dye them any color I choose

A couple of sling backs and I get my zing back

I just adore new shoes.



My love life is over I just go buy some loafers!

Gosh it sure feels good

To put a deposit in my foot ware closet

lmelda Marcos was just misunderstood



New shoes, new shoes



Oh problems seem much smaller

When you're four inches taller

You can rise about them low-down blues

The higher the heel, the better I feel

I just adore new shoes.
