lyrics

YOU SHOULD BE SHINING MY SHOES

I ought not to think of the past, but then
This town gives me the blues
It's nice that you've learned to forgive, my friend
But you should be shining my shoes

You should be wearing a nametag
Serving somebody's food
I should be riding in limousines
You should be shining my shoes

I don't believe in justice
Life is unbearably cruel
The only prediction I trust is
You will be shining my shoes

It's like you to bring up the past again
What options have we to choose?
It's lovely you've learned to forgive, my friend
But you should be shining my shoes

You should be
Shining
My shoes


END.
