"Weird Al" Yankovic - Don't Wear Those Shoes

I don't care
If you wreck my car or shave off all my hair
You can go
And run your vacuum during my favorite show
And I'll let you
Call up folks in Europe you don't even know
Anything you want, babe, if it makes you happy

But I'm begging you down on my bended knees
Oh honey, please, don't wear those shoes
You can spend my money, you can waste my time
Baby, I don't mind
But please, don't wear those shoes
Don't wear those shoes

It's alright
You can play your Twisted Sister every night
I suppose
You can lick the middles out of my Oreos
Or start laughing when you're drinking milk
So, it comes out your nose
And you know that I'd do anything to please you

But I'm begging you down on my bended knees
Oh honey, please, don't wear those shoes
You can spit in my face if you're so inclined
Baby, I don't mind
But please, don't wear those shoes

Oh no, don't wear those shoes
I said oh no, oh no, oh no
Please, don't wear those

Use my razor to shave your legs
Or eat crackers in bed
Stomp the poodle 'till it's flat
You could even shove
A 6-inch railroad spike through my head
I could learn to live with that

But now I'm begging you down on my bended knees
Oh honey, please don't wear those shoes
You can whip me, beat me, rob me blind
Baby, I don't mind
But please, don't wear those

I said oh no, oh no, oh no
Don't wear those shoes
I said oh no, oh no, oh no
Don't wear those shoes

You can scratch up my records
You can drink my booze
But baby, please don't wear those shoes
You make me an offer I can't refuse
But darling, please don't wear those shoes
You can play your bongos while I'm trying to snooze
But honey, please don't wear those shoes
You can expose yourself on the 6 o' clock news
But please, please don't wear those shoes

I said oh no, oh no, oh no
Don't wear those shoes
I said oh no, oh no, oh no
Don't wear those shoes
I said oh no, oh no, oh no
Don't wear those shoes
I said oh no, oh no, oh no

Wow this sounds exactly like if you were to combine "Come Dancing" & "Father Christmas" by The Kinks. This guy needs to get his proper due in the music biz.

[Enzo000000000]

He has some original songs. And this song is meant to be kinky.

[Jaadowgg]

@Enzo000000000 I'm pretty sure that the pun was unintentional but "kinky"; "The Kinks"? Ha. Just wanted to point that out. Give it a few moments, it'll come to you.

[Enzo000000000]

@Jaadowgg - Uh... no. Huhuh!

[byff2323]

As one of the few to actually own this album, I can say this was the best song on the whole tape.

[DeeFist1980]

No one...should mess around with twisted sister...I mean it. That line offended my deeply

[Enzo000000000]

@Jaadowgg - Actually, it was pretty damn intentional, if you must know! :D

[Jaadowgg]

@sterlingdragon123 Actually, I was saying that the pun that Enzo made when he said "kinky" was unintentional because it's "The Kinks".

[sterlingdragon123]

@Jaadowgg The song is a style parody of the kinks, as far as wikipedia says.

So I'd assume it's supposed to be a pun.

[DeltaAlphaNuStudio]

@Thunder20187 It's funny, cause on Wikipedia it says

Principally styled around the Kinks' 1980s singles "Come Dancing" and "Father Christmas".

and

Song is original, although the intro is in the style of The Kinks

[Chazbc]

Reminds me a bit of "Everything you Know is Wrong"

[TheDamnnation666]

I've loved this song for years!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PuddingCapacity]

Apparently, MC Frontalot is covering this for the next Weird Al tribute album...I can't wait to hear it.
