about

Originally released on How To Get Lost In a Time Consuming Ego Trip - Part 1 of 4, this tune has become a fan favorite... a hit you might say, if such things existed today. We hardly ever do it live with The Ethers (though we've added back in the set recently) but it works quite well in its original Donovan-style acoustic format.

This was tracked at Headphone Treats live on camera.

lyrics

STEPHANIE'S SHOES

Anyone can stand in Stephanie's shoes
she's such old news, but sharp when having her own way with testosterone
And everyone can see through Stephanie's plan
of landing a man who's made of modeling clay, to form a fitting fiance

Through her malleable life she drive like a knife
you know, but even though she's sort of a drag
there's just something about the malaise of her pout that wears resistance away

Anyone can stand in Stephanie's shoes
she's such old news and weaves such sinister lies to profit from her own demise
And everyone can see through Stephanie's game
of shifting the blame to claim she's caught in the net a victim of virile debt

Through her malleable life she drive like a knife
you know, but even though she's sort of a drag
there's just something about the malaise of her pout that wears resistance away

Anyone can stand in Stephanie's shoes
she's such old news and wrapped up in her own spell with anyone she can compel
But everyone can see through Stephanie's guise
characterized to seem so shy and demur while we merely mollify her
