Bif Naked - Tango Shoes
This song by Canadian punk popster Bif Naked is no tango, but it has great lyrics and a cool tune, and takes its theme from one of the most important things about tango - women's shoes!

"Tango Shoes" Lyrics
When we're together,
I am alone.
I dawdle down the street, shuffle my feet,
don't wanna go home.
There's an antique store.
I go inside.
All I got on me,
is only twenty bucks and my pride.
(That's when I see them!)
My new tango shoes,
They are my treasure! They're so cool!
My new tango shoes,
They are my ticket! My tools!
My new tango shoes,
they're gonna help me dance away from you!
My new tango shoes!
Like Cinderella, I am transformed.
Suddenly I'm taller
you're smaller
I am reborn!
With new courage,
I go downtown.
To find you sitting at a table,
girls all around.
(and they see my...)
My new tango shoes,
They are my treasure! They're so cool!
My new tango shoes,
They are my ticket! My tools! My new tango shoes,
they're gonna help me dance away from you!
My new tango shoes!
...see my sexy metamorphosis
right before your angry eyes...
I stick a red rose in between my lips,
turn on my heel,
dance out of your life!
You told me you love me.
That was untrue.
Now that we're over,
this dance is for you.
(Tango!)
My new tango shoes,
They are my treasure! They're so cool!
My new tango shoes,
They are my ticket! My tools!
My new tango shoes,
they're gonna help me dance away from you!
My new tango shoes!
