about

From the "Under the Covers" EP. Written by Daniel Johnston, covered by Karen O & the Kids for the "Where the Wild Things Are" (2009) soundtrack, and then I covered it, too.

I really like the idea of writing out all of the Oo-o-ooo-oo sounds in these lyrics, they are the best part to sing.

lyrics

Worried Shoes

I took my lucky break and I broke it in two,
Put on my worried shoes, my worried shoes,
Took me so many miles and they never wore out,
My worried shoes, my worried shoes,

Oo-o-o-oo o-oo-ooo,
my worried shoes,

I made a mistake that I never forgot, 
Tied knots in the laces of my worried shoes,
Every step that I take is another mistake, 
I march further and further away in my worried shoes,

Oo-o-o-oo o-oo-ooo, oo-o-o-oo o-oo-ooo,
my worried shoes,

My shoes took me down a crooked path,
Away from all welcome mats, 
My worried shoes,
I looked all around and saw the sun shining down,
Took off my worried shoes, my worried shoes,

Oo-o-o-oo o-oo-ooo, oo-o-o-oo o-oo-ooo, oo-o-o-oo o-oo-ooo,
My worried shoes,

-Daniel Johnston
