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 is right
I said
hey I put some new shoes on and everybody's smiling
it so inviting
Oh short on money
but long on time
slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine
and I'm running late
and I don't need an excuse
'cause 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 all the time
and I made my way to the kitchen
but I had to stop from the shock of what I found
a room full of all my friends dancing round and round
and I thought hello new shoes
byebye them blues
Hey I put some new shoes on
and suddenly everything is right
I said
hey I put some new shoes on and everybody's smiling
it so inviting
Oh short on money
but long on time
slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine
and I'm running late
and I don't need an excuse
'cause I'm wearing my brand new shoes
Take me wondering through these streets
where bright lights and angels meet
stone to stone they take me on
I walking to the break on down
Take me wondering through these streets
