(The Angels Wanna Wear My) Red Shoes (Remaster) (Live) - Elvis Costello/The Attractions
Written by:Elvis Costello
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
I won't get any older now
That angels want to wear my red shoes
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 so feeling oh abused 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
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
But now I try to be amused
Since their wings have got rusted
You know the angels want to wear my red shoes
When they told me 'bout their
Side of the bargain
That's when I knew that I could not refuse
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
Red shoes 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
Red shoes the angels want to wear my red shoes
Red shoes the angels want to wear
