Oswald/Angels Wanna Wear My Red Shoes (by Elvis Costello)

Cast

 * Oswald as Elvis Costello

Lyrics
Oswald: Oh, I used to be disgusted 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 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 is that?) 'Cause she's feeling so abused (Oh, that's too sad) 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 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 Red shoes, the angels wanna wear my red shoes ...
