Verse 1:
The shoes you wear, ain’t the shoes I wear but I don't care.

You’ve got things to say. But they’re thrown away, cause they’re so passe

To them, they, who are the anyway? They’re just beating each other at

Being each other with nothing to say.[C-C-G]

Verse 2:
Now everyone cares, cause the hat that he wears is on the wrong way!

And I heard them say, “Don’t be square!” So square we’ll stay without

Them, they, who are they anyway? They’re just beating each other at

Being each other with nothing to say.

Chorus:
I’m holding on to my old man’s sneakers,

Just going deaf to my hi-fi records and,

Hangin’ round at the pawn shop waiting for nothing to change,

Cause anything strange is wrong.[C-C-G]

Verse 3:
Now here we are, in a dead man’s car going to the show.
In my old chapeau, well it’s full of holes, but it’s got more soul
then them, they, who are they anyway? They’re just beating each other at
being each other with nothing to say?

Chorus

And there you go! One last thing, end on the C-C-G thing and the song is done! Tah-dah!
