GREEN SHOES BLUES
Verse1:
Let me tell you about my new pair of extra special magical green shoes.
Don’t need gassing or recharging,
And we make no pollution when we cruise.
So I took a walk this morning
In my green shoes to spread the news.
Verse2:
We were skipping down the sidewalk in the neighborhood,
Just smiling in the sun,
When my green shoes got caught
In a wad of yucky gooey bubble gum.
And I slipped and fell into a bogus pile of trash,
And that’s no fun.
I saw those two green faces.
My shoes looked so depressed.
Teardrops on their laces,
They said oooooo what a mess!
Chorus:
Don’t give my green shoes the blues.
Don’t give my green shoes the blues.
Yeah get real. Don’t be a heel.
Don’t give my green shoes the blues.
Verse 3:
I went down to the seashore to take my green shoes strolling in the sand,
Instead of seashells what we found was more bottles, paper, Styrofoam, and cans.
And I wondered how I could make my little green sneakers understand.
And those little soles looked up at me and said,
What Mother nature gives us is really very cool,
So if you dig pollution, you’re nothing but a fool.
Chorus:
Don’t give my green shoes the blues.
Don’t give my green shoes the blues.
If you use a can, recycle it man.
I mean don’t give my green shoes the blues.
Verse 4:
Well my green shoes were happy like when I put them on this morning,
They sounded like this *! !** *! **
And when I stepped in that mess
They sounded more like this: / / /
Chorus
Don’t give my green shoes the blues.
Don’t give my green shoes the blues.
Show the earth what she’s really worth.
Don’t give my green shoes the blues.
