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