"Take Off Your Shoes" lyrics

"Take Off Your Shoes"

When you come to my house
Take off your shoes
Mama keeps the dogs out
To keep it looking good
You may think we're simple
Living like we do
When you come to my house
Take off your shoes

Look at all the werewolves
Out on the street
Changing in the moonlight
Showing off their teeth
Say something enough
And people think it's true
When you come to my house
Take off your shoes

I need somebody I can trust
When all the silver plated heroes start to rust
And there ain't nothing in this world except for us
And the little things we do
When you come to my house
Take off your shoes

Did you ever wonder
What's underneath
Ghosts in every floorboard
That'll touch your feet
When we lose the past
The future's nothing new
When you come to my house
Take off your shoes

I need somebody I can trust
When all the silver plated heroes start to rust
And there ain't nothing in this world except for us
And the little things we do
When you come to my house
Take off your shoes
