Songtexte New Shoes - Friday Night Party

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
Everybody's smiling, it's so inviting
I'm short on money but long on time
Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine
And I'm running late and I don't need no excuse
'Cause I'm wearing my brand new shoes

Woke up late one Thursday
I was seeing stars as I rubbed 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
Left a stop on the shock of what I found
A room full of all 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
Everybody's smiling, it's so inviting
I'm short on money but long on time
Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine
And I'm running late and I don't need no excuse
'Cause I'm wearing my brand new shoes

Take me a wander through these streets
Where bright lights and angels meet
Stone to stone they take me on
Walking 'til the break of dawn
Take me a wander through these streets
Where bright lights and angels meet
Stone to stone they take me on
Walking '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
Everybody's smiling, it's so inviting
I'm short on money but long on time
Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine
And I'm running late and I don't need no excuse
'Cause I'm wearing my brand new shoes

Hey, I put some new shoes on and suddenly everything's right
I said hey, I put some new shoes on and
Everybody's smiling, it's so inviting
I'm short on money but long on time
Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine
And I'm running late and I don't need no excuse
'Cause I'm wearing my brand new shoes
