Flipper's Guitar - My Red Shoes Story lyrics

On my way home from school I found her in a shoe case Summer evening, the wind was cool Caught me her very grace On my way home from school I found her in a shoe case Summer evening, the wind was cool Caught me her very grace I made up my mind, swore by my teacup not to eat until my mother gives up for my red shoes (my red shoes) My red shoes (my red shoes) My red shoes (my red shoes) My red shoes (my red shoes) So I wore my red shoes and walked around everywhere Christmas time I held the firebrand blue hat in Mayfair Big kangaroo in the zoo stopped saying coo Hate all blues I love snooze yes I won't lose in my red shoes (my red shoes) My red shoes (my red shoes) My red shoes (my red shoes) My red shoes (my red shoes) But as is often the case chewing gum and all Rainy day, muddy seashore Sorry I was bold Other shoes looking so good Oh, this fickle boy One day she went away from my shoe case Years have pa**ed now I'm at ease on a limousine seat Wearing a dark brown suit and sungla**es so neat But once in a while drinking a gla** of Pernod I remember when I ran down on the snow in my red shoes (my red shoes) My red shoes (my red shoes) My red shoes (my red shoes) My red shoes (my red shoes)
