Oh, I used to be disgusted, and now I try to be amused 
But since their wings have got rusted 
You know the 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 older 
Now the angels wanna wear my red shoes 

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 

Oh, I 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 

How can you say that I'm too old 
When the angels have stolen my red shoes 

Oh, I said I'm so happy, I 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 know the 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 older 
Now the angels wanna wear my red shoes 
And I won't get any older 
Now the angels wanna wear my red shoes 

Red shoes, the angels wanna wear my red shoes 
Red shoes, the angels wanna wear my red shoes....
