lyrics

Fuck-me Shoes (2008)
Well I calculate that it's time to get my clothes on
My make-up, my nylons, my lipstick and my little balck dress
Well I calculate that it's time to be more gorgeous
I'm going to strut and pout and mince and flaunt
With all that I've been blessed

Now you make calculate that I'm feeling just a little bit nervous
About my make-up, my nylons, and my new stiletto heels
But I calculate that it's time to provoke a reaction
I'm going strut and pout and spit and snarl
With a new-found resolve of steel

Chorus
Now you can bet your life that I know just what I'm doing
And you can bet your life that I'm doing it for myself
There's method in my madness, goodness comes from badness
In my fuck-me shoes and a fuck-you smile
My fuck-me shoes and a fuck-you smile

Well you may calculate that I'm no ordinary soldier
In my battle-dress, my warpaint... and these shoes
But I calculate that I'm serving on the frontline
Where I'll strut and pout and mince and flaunt
In a war we must not lose

Well I calculate that you might be ready to join me
In your make-up, your nylons, your lipstick and a dress you can borrow off of me
I calculate that together we will shine like diamonds
We're going to strut and pout and mince and flaunt
In the name of liberty
