Heels Over Flats by TGL Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sit down and get prepared for the letdown
Tell me something honest and unforgettable
I have a feeling this won't conclude
Until we put it all on read
We watch the tables turn
As the tables are turning
I lay my cards face down to leave you out
And know the house will take you in
[Pre-Chorus]
And if my body temperature were to get much warmer
It’s safe to say my blood will boil over
[Verse 2]
She fancies matter over mind and heels over flats
Big shopping centers and time on her back
So pin her up like a centerfold upon your bedroom wall
She loves to go to the bars just for the stares
Sporting blue designer jeans and bleach blonde hair
And when her lonely night is over she won't have anything
[Pre-Chorus]
And if my body temperature were to get much warmer
It's safe to say my blood will boil over
[Chorus]
Shape up or ship out I’m finding confidence
Because my mind can't read these signs
So why not play with his?
Shape up or ship out I'm finding confidence
Because my mind can't read these signs
So why not play with his?
[Verse 3]
Thank God I'm wearing boots in this mess
'Cause this rain of contradictions is flooding the overpass
Wish I could drown in something more than that
Because I'm desperate for something permanent
Make the revision
Subtract her from your system
And then we can drink to the night
It's safe to say my blood will boil over
[Chorus]
Shape up or ship out I’m finding confidence
Because my mind can’t read these signs
So why not play with his?
Shape up or ship out I'm finding confidence
Because my mind can’t read these signs
So why not play with his?
[Bridge]
She's digging a hole that can't get any deeper
She's digging a hole that can’t get any deeper
[Chorus]
Shape up or ship out I'm finding confidence
Because my mind can't read these signs
So why not play with his?
Shape up or ship out I'm finding confidence
Because my mind can't read these signs
So why not play with his?
Sit down and get prepared for the letdown
Tell me something honest and unforgettable
I have a feeling this won't conclude
Until we put it all on read
We watch the tables turn
As the tables are turning
I lay my cards face down to leave you out
And know the house will take you in
[Pre-Chorus]
And if my body temperature were to get much warmer
It’s safe to say my blood will boil over
[Verse 2]
She fancies matter over mind and heels over flats
Big shopping centers and time on her back

[Pre-Chorus]
And if my body temperature were to get much warmer
It's safe to say my blood will boil over
[Chorus]
Shape up or ship out I’m finding confidence
Because my mind can't read these signs
So why not play with his?
Shape up or ship out I'm finding confidence
Because my mind can't read these signs
So why not play with his?

Shape up or ship out I'm finding confidence
