Lyrics: New Shoes

Woke up cold one Tuesday
I'm looking tired and feeling quite sick
I felt like there was something missing in my day to day life
So i quickly opened the wardrobe pulled out some jeans
and a t-shirt that seemed clean
topped it off with a pair of old shoes that were ripped around the seams
and i thought 'these shoes just don't suit me'

Hey, I put some new shoes on and suddenly everything's right
I said hey, I put some new shoes on and everyone's smiling, its so inviting
oh, short on money but long on time
slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine
and I'm running late and I dont need an excuse
coz I'm wearing my brand new shoes

Woke up late one Thursday, and I'm seeing stars as I'm rubbing my eyes
and i felt like there were two days missing as i focused on the time
and i made my way to the kitchen
but had to stop from the shock of what i found
a room full of my friends all dancing round and round
and i thought 'hello new shoes, bye bye blues'

Hey, I put some new shoes on and suddenly everything's right
I said hey, I put some new shoes on and everyone's smiling, its so inviting
oh, short on money but long on time
slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine
and I'm running late and I dont need an excuse
coz I'm wearing my brand new shoes

take me wandering through these streets
where bright lights and angels meet
stone to stone they take me on
i'm walkin til the break of dawn
take me wandering through these streets
where bright lights and angels meet
stone to stone, they take me on, i'm walkin til the break of dawn

Hey, I put some new shoes on and suddenly everything's right
I said hey, I put some new shoes on and everyone's smiling, its so inviting
oh, short on money but long on time
slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine
and I'm running late and I dont need an excuse
coz I'm wearing my brand new shoes
