2000 Shoes

(album: Tighten Up, Vol. 88 - 1988)

Philippine star greedy girl took the money to buy the world
First a little then the lot, others' needs where soon forgot
I heard you like a love song, this here one is just for you
In keeping with your taste we hope, it's called "2000 shoes"

Never had a consience or any moral views
Even any kins of taste, just 2000 shoes
If I had the world to sell, could strike a deal with you
I know you haven't got the cash, just 2000 shoes

Catwalk at the embassy supplied by human rights
Qadhafi and George Hamilton, Mao Tse Tung and disco lights

Never had a consience or any moral views
Even any kins of taste, just 2000 shoes
If I had the world to sell, could strike a deal with you
I know you haven't got the cash, just 2000 shoes
2000 shoes

Philippine star greedy girl took the money to buy the world
First a little then the lot, others' need where soon forgot
I heard you like a love song, this here one is just for you
In keeping with your taste we hope, it's called "2000 shoes"

So here it is Imelda, sorry, it's the blues
I would have done it different if I was in your shoes

Never had a consience or any moral views
Even any kins of taste, just 2000 shoes
If I had the world to sell, could strike a deal with you
I know you haven't got the cash, just 2000 shoes
2000 shoes

"It's coverage my expense
With entertainment provided by the cabbing crew"
