Shoes Without Heels - Elvis Costello

This love of mine is packed with stepping stone

These shoes are made for walking in reverse

In the dead of night, you tiptoe out and leave me all alone

Putting on your satin slip-ons and your sultry french cologne.

Shes wearing shoes without heels.

Shes walking over the floor.

Shes walking all over me Weirder therein, you know how it feels

When she walks right out of the door.

Well, I thought that I was bigger than this town

I thought Id spend a pace and go the distance

But she picked me out, she used me up, and then she put me down

Now Im driven til Im crying, or Im dreaming til I drown.

Shes wearing shoes without heels.

Shes walking over the floor.

Shes walking all over me Weirder therein, you know how it feels

When she walks right out of the door.

While youre busy packing underwear and other worthless trinkets,

Spare a thought for worthless men who drag on women like theyre

Cigarettes, cause you watch him walk away from you

While he gets down and deals

Oh, hell watch you walk away without heels

Oh, you think that hes a fool to tolerate

All the liberty you cherish and you roughly take

But to watch your love turn slowly from indifference to hate

Would hurt him more than any heart that you might care to break.

Shes wearing shoes without heels.

Shes walking over the floor.

Shes walking all over you

But when shes finished, I know (?)

When she walks right back through the door.
