Brown Shoes

Sing Street Sing Street

Who the hell are you to tell me what to do?
You wear a dress and tell me not to wear brown shoes
You think you're man enough to wash the makeup off my face right now?
But don't you know the bigger that they are the harder they fall?

And the boot's on the other foot now
Buckle up, we're taking you down
See, your curtain's falling, so take your bow

And who the hell is he to tell me who to be?
If he wants me dancing, he can watch on MTV
You try to shut me up
I'll turn the volume up
And drown you out
But don't you know the bigger that they are the harder they fall?

Yeah, the boot's on the other foot now
Buckle up, we're taking you down
See, your curtain's falling, so take your bow

Cause you had your time in the sun
And it's no use banging your drum
Now the boot's on the other foot, take your bow

What's gonna define the rest of your life?
Start facing the truth
You're stuck in a lie
Sharp end of your knife is pointing at you
Your up will be down
Just hanging around in gravity boots
You're stuck in the past
I'm writing the future

Yeah, the boot's on the other foot now
Buckle up, we're taking you down
And your mask is slipping, so take your bow

Yeah, you had your time in the sun
Does it hurt when you're kicking someone?
Cause the boot's on the other foot
Boot's on the other foot
Boot's on the other foot now
Yeah, take your bow
