Oh, I used to be disgusted

And now I try to be amused

But since their wings have got rusted

You know, the angels wanna 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, 'cause the angels wanna 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?)

'Cause 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



(REPEAT FIRST VERSE)

Oh, I won't get any older, now the angels wanna wear my red shoes

Red shoes, the angels wanna wear my red shoes

Red shoes, the angels wanna wear my red shoes

(REPEAT AND FADE
