Suzzy Roche - Pink Ballet Slippers lyrics

pink ballet slippers two dollars for a pair must have been made by the guy in the store they're strange on i don't care i'm gonna buy them they might be too small lately while dancing i fall sweet ballerina turns on her tiny toes he lifts her up and carries her how come i'm not one of those i do my dancing in combat boots i don't look good in a tu tu o teacher can you help me get a kick out of these pink ballet slippers pink ballet slippers i wear em to sleep i wear em to dream see you sew the elastic neatly to the side deep in a drawer bury them these shoes you gotta hide only can wear em when nobody's home or when you're talking on the telephone o teacher can you find me somewhere to be pretty in my pink ballet slippers pink ballet slippers i wear em to sleep i wear em to dream i wear em to sleep
