Two Black Shoes

Lyrics

[Verse 1] No one's in the swimming pool Check-out time is noon Coke machine in the stairwell Cold air fills your room But the dark beneath the sea of cars It wears the two black shoes [Verse 2] Cardboard box and blanket Stolen shopping cart Hide beneath the overpass Kicked out of the park Hide beneath the traffic's roar Eyes like two black shoes [Bridge] Amazing sale, flashing lights The new team, it can't lose But as the blue sky rises Shadows grow beneath our shoes [Verse 3] Swallow all your sleeping pills Shop away the gloom Scrub the kitchen counters Lock the door to every room But on your feet, still down beneath You wear the two black shoes
