Shoe Shopping

from Christmas In March by The Sursiks

/

lyrics

This is a song that we’d like to send out to just all the pretty girls that happen to be tuned in to our show: Here’s Johnny Carras, sings a song called “Hey! Pretty Girl”!

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
Two words: Shoe shopping!

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
Two words: Shoe shopping!

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
Two words: Addictive shopping!

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
Two words: Death dealing shopping!

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
Two words: To die for shopping!

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
Two words: To die, die, die!

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
A worshipful devotion to shopping!

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
In a few seconds,
to die for!
you will have killed yourself.

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
Sex, drugs, hey you, buy this!

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
Two words: Kiss ass. What the hell?
Hey you, buy this!
Damn radio!

Hey you, listening to the radio, how you feeling these days?
Ok, not bad? C’mon! Is that where you wanna be?
When was the last time you did something you once looked forward to doing?
Y’know, symptoms of depression could be holding you back.
Perhaps you should ask your doctor about your treatment options.
Damn radio!

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
Two words: nose job, nose job!

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
Two words: chin implant, chin implant!

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
Two words: reshaped bellybutton, bellybutton!

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
Two words: dental restoration, dental restoration!
dental restoration, dental restoration!

Seven long weeks have all come down to this moment!
Finally, this is the moment that will make all the sacrifice worthwhile!
Kenneth, you’re not paying attention.
Continue considering these things.
How ‘bout this, how ‘bout this?!

Movies, food, sports, clothes
Perfect body, perfect nose.
Tummy tuck, breast augmentation
Nausea, dizziness and constipation.
Right when you need it, wherever you are.
The footnote reads “I need a new car!”
Sex, drugs, drinkin’ , booze
Ask your doctor if it’s right for you.
Fifty cent tomatos.
Potatoes come alive! “Potatoes?”
My mouth said “wow!”, my head said “how?”
But that was then and this is now!
Breast implants, dental restoration!
The following is supplementary information:
Guitars, parties, drinkin’, booze,
Yes! The method professionals use!
Local anesthesia, just 2 pills.
Working hard to do god’s will.
You fucked up the music! “Yes I did!”
In search of the elusive giant squid!
Stupid clothes, bad food.
Deadly addictions, “how rude!”
With a nick nick paddy whack, give the dog a bone.
This is so much fun, I’m never going home!

Oh, if only you would actually pay attention!

Next question, it is your final question, so listen very carefully, here it is:

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
Two words: nausea, dizziness.

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
Two words: sleepiness, nervousness

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
Two words: insomnia, anorexia

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
Two words: and constipation

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
Two words: clothes shopping

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
Two words: food shopping

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
Two words: sex shopping

What’s a girl to do with all this pent up energy?
Two words: drug shopping
Hey you, buy this!

LSD, hashish, cocaine
Pay attention, This is a game!
You have to figure out what gets you ahead in the game, not what gets you ahead in life!
Damn radio!
And the poor kids and the middle class kids, they’re all copying the rich kids!
They’re all going the same goddamn, ‘screw america’ way!
