Oh I used to be disgusted
And now I try to be amused.
But since their wings have got rusted
You knowthe 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 oldernow 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.

OhI 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?

OhI said "I m so happyI 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
And now I try to be amused.
But since their wings have got rusted
You knowthe 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 oldernow the angels wanna wear my red shoes.
Oh I won t get any oldernow the angels wanna wear my red shoes.

Red shoesthe angels wanna wear my red shoes. (repeat and fade)
